Aroma and taste: Rose wine doesn’t have to be just an easy-drinkable summer wine. Blending of Cabernet Sauvignon ’21 for fruitiness, Syrah ’22 for acidity, Merlot ’22 for body and structure. A wide range of sensations – strawberries, cream, red berries, red currant leaf, black pepper. We chose a barrel that, doesn’t just increase the structure and body, also highlights the red berry fruitiness in the wine. Maturing on fine lees increases complexity, roundness and seriousness. Precipitation of tartrate crystals or sediment is the result of a natural process; it does not affect the quality of the wine.
Food pairing: full body, tannic structure, firm acidity, fruitiness… very easy to pair. From seafood to heavier BBQ dishes, it is able to handle most of the dishes which are regularly paired with rosé wines
