Smooth Rosé Gris from just outside St Tropez.
A smooth Rosé Gris with an expressive bouquet full of red fruit flavours with fresh metholated notes and citrus fruit flavours on the finish. Fine classic rosé from provence, light delicate rose petal colours with notes of mint and lavender. Fresh crisp mineral backing to a mouthful of water melon and strawberry fruits and a citrus finish.
