Salmon orange color. Aromas and flavors of white vermouth, sage and bay leaves, pomegranate chutney, and mint with a silky, vibrant, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a smooth, interesting, medium-long finish revealing suggestions of cherry and plum relish, blood orange, nut skin, and pomegranate with crunchy, chewy tannins and a suggestion of oak flavor. An intriguingly herbal, fruit-forward Rosé with refreshing acidity that will shine at a table filled with spicy fare.

About

Regional Rose

Rosé wine is made in many regions in Italy. Among the most famous are Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, Negroamaro from Puglia and Sangiovese rosé from Tuscany. These are quite rich and rather dry and offer excellent complexity; they are wonderful alternatives to red wines during the warm weather and can stand up to many red meats. Inexpensive versions from the Veneto and Friuli regions tend to be lighter and a bit sweeter.
