The abundant rainfall in April proved crucial for the continuation of the season. In fact, from May until harvesting, our vines had to go through an extremely dry summer. Their high resilience allowed them to support the grapes without high stress. Close to the harvest, we were able to benefit from a good temperature range crucial to preserving the fragrance in the wines. TASTING NOTES The 50&50 Rosé is refined with a seductive shade of pink.
