Hewitson Belle Ville Rosé 2024

Share

A light and breezy Rosé fashioned in the Provençal style with Mourvèdre calling the shots, as it so often does in Provence. A delicate dusty, earthy scent in red berry fruits – plum and wild raspberry – join lavender, fennel seed, sage. The palate shows a wild garrigue quality, of the land and earth, with spice and fruit married to bright, mouth-watering acidity. It’s a smart Rosé, dry, nicely smooth with a fine tannin finish and good length. It’s definitely a strong consideration as a dining companion.
