2025 Pétillant Naturel Sparkling Rosé

Buoyant aromas of strawberries and roses. The perfume is as intense as the color of this rose, and the palate comes to match that power. Medium-bodied and nicely mineral in flavor to help keep the wine completely dry and food friendly. The fruitiness is well balanced in. Lengthy.

Varieties: 100% Mourvèdre

Picked early to retain acidity. Slow fermentation began in stainless steel tank for 20 days. Bottled at the end of fermentation to capture natural carbonation. Undisgorded.
