In the glass

Medium-bodiedHigh acidityDryLong finish

Aroma: summer berries, shortbread

Palate: redcurrant, raspberry, cherry

A sunset-pink multi-vintage rose of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Summer fruit and shortbread on the nose lead to redcurrant, raspberry and cherry, carried on a creamy, round texture and a silky finish.

What it pairs with

  • Strawberries with cream
    The red-fruit core and creamy texture mirror the dish rather than fight it.
  • Charcuterie board
    High acidity resets the palate between slices of cured meat.
  • Seared tuna
    Redcurrant and cherry give enough fruit weight for a meaty fish without tannin.
