Gently chewy and focused on the palate, offering concentrated red berry and citrus fruit flavors supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows strong tenacity on the mineral-driven finish, which leaves behind a hint of candied flowers.

• Wine Enthusiast: Darker in color than some rosés from the region, this nevertheless has the right freshness and lift. Bright fruit flavors are balanced with grapefruit freshness and spice, with an attractively perfumed aftertaste.
