## Food pairing

The wine's bright fruit notes and dry profile make it versatile. Its moderate body and refreshing character can cut through the richness of seafood and poultry, while its subtle fruitiness complements lighter, herb-infused dishes. It pairs well with dishes that have a touch of acidity or freshness.

## Wine making process

Limhamns Rosé is produced using controlled temperature fermentation in stainless steel tanks. This technique is employed to maintain the wine's freshness and fruit-forward character. After fermentation, the wine undergoes a 12-month aging period, also in stainless steel. This process is designed to preserve the inherent qualities of the grapes and the Dão terroir, contributing to a clean and expressive rosé.
