Description

Ye Wheat Wine Rosé is a 12% ABV fruit wine from Ye-mil 2ri Brewery in Gangwon-do, fermented from Campbell Early grapes - the dominant grape varietal in Korean winemaking, noted for its pronounced foxy aroma and sweet-tart juice. The nose opens with Concord-grape-like intensity: bright berry jam, a candied-violet note, and a whiff of strawberry bubblegum that is distinctly Campbell. On the palate, the body is light-medium and juicy, with the grape's natural sweetness immediately present but balanced by a tangy acidity that prevents flatness. The midpalate shows a brief mineral flash - possibly from the Gangwon-do terroir - before settling into a smooth, fruit-forward finish. Silver medalist at the 2018 Gwangmyeong Cave Korea Wine Awards, which validates its craft against domestic competition. Serve chilled at 7-10°C with hoe where the berry-acid brightness cuts through sesame oil richness, alongside a cheese selection where the rosé style adds visual and flavor warmth, or with light appetizers as a versatile starter.
