Contadi Castaldi Franciacorta Soul Rosé 2014

Colour

Brilliant copper colour.

Bouquet

It has a deep and complex bouquet, with berry, floral notes, nuances reminiscent of caper flowers, and with delicate spices.

Flavour

Full and strong palate, with a crisp taste, denoting the clear and consistent presence of pinot noir, with tangs of clove, and hints of liquorice, and a balanced almond milk finish. Soft in the mouth, but not sweet, it has a fresh pleasant flavour. The finish is long and dense.
