Tasting notes :
An authentic copper-toned, pale pink wine that reflects the natural color of this grape. The bouquet is inviting, with aromas of red apple, wild raspberry, and a hint of cardamom spice. This is nicely rounded in the mouth but has vibrant, juicy red apple notes supported by a fine finish and a touch of mineral grip. This shows the finely judged balance and elegant complexity of four days of skin maceration yet without any heaviness.
Food matching ideas: Due to its elegant, complex body, this wine will pair well with various dishes - from cold starters to spring-summer pasta. It is excellent with seafood dishes and not too spicy Asian, Thai, and modern Japanese cuisine.
