Description
Still organic rosé from Sicily, 12.5% ABV, produced by Planeta. Blend of 50% Nero d'Avola and 50% Syrah. 0.75L bottle, 2024 vintage. A rosé that embodies the essence of Sicily, with an elegance reminiscent of a prima ballerina. Vinification is similar to that of a white wine, with a brief maceration to extract color. Floral notes of hibiscus and rose hips blend with hints of wild strawberries, blackberries, and melon. The Rosé's delicate color evokes the elegance of a prima ballerina. Lively and fresh on the palate, it recalls meringue and the pale flesh of snuffbox peaches.
