Description
This rich, round rose is a truly affordable luxury. Although thus far off the radar of wine critics, it is a standout wine from de Cazanove house, with its lovely strawberry color and aromas. Full-bodied but nicely balanced, this wine will make a great aperitif or accompany a wide range of meals. A great value for this type of quality.
Tasting notes
This rose has a lovely salmon-pink color and delicious candied fruit and rose petal aromas. There is volume, fullness and strength on the palate, with good substance. A delicious wine!
Food pairing
This rose pairs well with shellfish, mild and soft cheeses, pork and rich fish, such as salmon and tuna.
