Wine Description

Delicate salmon pink; berries and cherries on the nose that tell of the variety, charming and fruity on the palate, characterised by a sweet and sour feeling, delicate residual sweetness and clear fruit sweetness, plus a finesse-rich acidity corset, all of which adds up to an exciting, youthfully conceived rosé experience.

Food Pairing

Provençal dishes, seafood, asparagus, white meat, but also cheese.
