Blush nectarine flesh, Alpine strawberry and summer Frangipani blooms. Strawberry roll up, pink peppercorn and dried pear. A wash of peaking acidity and middle palate weight of fleshy raspberries and cantaloupe. Bone dry and thirst quenching. Sophisticated and lusciously fruity. This is a lunchable Rosé fit for drinking with salmon en croute or following cured meats into decadent fresh cheeses. A quality wine that would make any pink drinker over the moon. It’s also at a price where you can afford to get a few cases and you should. A lacey phenolic gip ensures the wine stays with you for longer than the average Rosé. Delightful.
