The wine is dry with a superb texture and balance with superb savory mineral flavors matched with gorgeous berry fruit. This graceful rose offers a nice reticence to its watermelon and strawberry flavors as they rise slowly through the finish. It's produced using the saignee method, which refers to letting the juice bleed off after limited contact with the skins. Excellent on a hot Summer afternoon or with a range of foods, from seafood to red meat! Those fond of the dry Rose wines of southern France, particularly those of Provence, will appreciate the subtle beauty of this Rose of Sangiovese. Sophisticated Summer Fun!
