## Summary

A rosé from a single 5,250 m2 plot at 350 m, fermented and aged in amphora with 6 hours of skin contact.

## Tasting notes

Fresh and delicate but incisive. Exotic aromas on the nose; tasty, fresh and savoury on the palate with lively acidity and small red fruits. Very easy to drink.

## Food pairings

Cured meats that are not too fatty, fried vegetables, mushrooms, tomato and mozzarella salad, delicate pasta and spring risottos, light white meats and more decisively prepared fish.
