Tasting
Sensory characteristics:
Bright, crystal clear appearance of raspberry red or with glints of salmon pink.
Notes of small red fruits (strawberry, redcurrant), rose, English candy, with a fresh finale of mint and white pepper.
The ultimate wines for a gourmand, tender rosés are round and mellow on the palate with a liveliness that compensates for the sweet feeling and refreshes the finish.
Serving temperature: 6°C
Ageing potential: Should be drunk in its early years, although certain generous vintages can hold surprises in store for several decades.
