In the glass

Palate: redcurrant, blood orange, saline minerality, brioche
Pinot Nero-led organic Rosé Pas Dosé. Wild strawberry and rose petal aromatics stripped of dosage sugar, with the moraine chalk exposed.
What it pairs with
-
Tonno scottato
Lightly seared tuna meets the wine's pomegranate and rose petal lift; high acidity scrubs the sesame crust. -
Carpaccio di branzino
Raw sea bass with lemon finds a foil in the wine's blood orange and saline finish; low dosage stays out of the way. -
Salmone gravlax
Dill-cured salmon meets the wine's wild strawberry; high acidity carries the dill and sugar cure.

Frequently asked about Mosnel Pas Dosé Parosé Rosé
What does Mosnel Parosé taste like?
Wild strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate, rose petal and chalk on the nose; redcurrant, blood orange, saline minerality and brioche on the palate. Medium-bodied with high acidity and a long, mineral finish.
Is Parosé a Pas Dosé?
Yes. No liqueur d'expedition is added at disgorgement, exposing the Pinot Nero saigne to the chalky moraine-hill minerality.
When should I drink Parosé?
Drink within 0 to 10 years of disgorgement. Younger releases lead with wild strawberry; older releases trade fruit lift for brioche and chalk depth.
