Peyrassol La Croix Rose'

  • Varietal Composition: 55% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 15% Syrah
  • Alcohol: 12.5%

• Tasting Notes

  • Soft in color, reminiscent of rose petals. A very open nose, typical of the unrestrained expression of this vintage: fresh flowers perfectly interweave with delicate and tasty fruit. The nose supports the palate with fresh, typical fruit notes characteristic of the grape varieties. The wine’s lingering velvety profile takes over the whole palate before moving to a delicate, thirst-quenching finish.

  • Serving Suggestions: The fruitiness and freshness allow this wine to accompany with chicken tagine with lemon and candied apricots or even a grilled octopus salad.
