👃 Tasting Notes

• Color: Pale pink with soft orange reflections

• Nose: Aromas of wild strawberries, redcurrant, peach, rose petals, and hints of herbs like thyme and garrigue

• Palate: Creamy and fresh texture with notes of forest fruits, melon, and a subtle mineral edge.

• Finish: Smooth, thanks in part to partial malolactic fermentation—a rare feature for rosé.
