“An alluring rosé offering candied red strawberry and rose petal on the nose. The palate bursts with zesty red fruit, beautifully balanced by vibrant pomegranate acidity. A dry, textured finish adds depth. This is everything a rosé should be: juicy, refreshing, and brimming with personality.” - The Wine Writer
Ripe red berry fruit notes with citrus overtones on the nose and palate with hints of watermelon. A firm natural fruit acidity offsets the fruit ripeness making a wine in perfect balance and lengthy firm finish. A lip-smacking Rosé that is perfect for an aperitif or paired with food.
This is very good value for money. A Piedmont red under $30! It has good dark fruit, some nice tannins and acid to balance although it would benefit from some more age to smooth it a bit but I liked its feistiness now.
I was happily surprised by the quality of the labels in the "mystery" case of rose wines - great value for the money I must say. Excellent drinking experience from the unfamiliar labels and happy to enjoy again the familiar ones.
