Rosé Cuvée Millesimata

ROSÉ - Cuvée Millesimata Brut

The grapes used to make this elegant and versatile wine are harvested at dawn: the dawn is captured in the bottle with its coral hues, its aromas of woodland undergrowth and the promise of a new beginning.

A most elegant coral pink, the bouquet highlights fruity notes, ranging from ripe cherry to blood orange, via redcurrant and black cherries in syrup; it continues with beeswax and gentian root. On the palate, the fruit dominates once more, with a long finish of pomegranate, pink grapefruit and extreme juiciness.

It is a highly drinkable wine despite its full-bodied structure, certainly a worthy alternative to red wines when paired with red meat dishes, perhaps those cooked briefly or lightly marinated; it is also worth trying with risottos made with seafood.
