This sparkling rosé has a vibrant colour with a nose of fresh cherry tones. A dreamy palate of summer fruits leads to a crisp, refreshing finish making it the perfect aperitif. A unique wine made with a blend of sustainably grown, aromatic varieties that require minimal intervention in the vineyard.
