Aromatic, floral nose with menthol tinges, and a fresh palate which displays peach and red berries, supported by intense herbs.
90pts James Suckling
If you enjoy new style rosé wines from the South of France, then you might well love this sparkling version. Light and charming it is easy drinking, but also wonderfully refreshing and very well-crafted. Plenty of orange blossom and red berry character.
Winemaker Notes
This wine displays delicate yet persistent bubbles. The nose exudes aromas of small red fruits such as strawberry and raspberry.The palate offers refreshing notes of grapefruit and spice.
Enjoy on its own or with aperitifs or chocolate-based desserts.
