The 2022 Rosé opens with aromas of strawberry, raspberry, apple, and Anjou pear. The entry is bright and crisp, with flavors bursting with dried mango, watermelon and a hint of citrus. A juicy texture segues into a clean, refreshing finish.
Pair with citrus-based salads, pastas with red sauce, prosciutto, and watermelon sorbet.
