Details
Juicy and lifted, this rosé brings serious summer energy - redcurrant, wild raspberries, and just-picked strawberries meet soft peach skin and a hint of strawberry laces. There’s a dreamy breeze of rose and lavender in the background too. Fresh, flirty, and fabulous!

Origin: The spiritual home of rosé is Provence, in Southern France. Mainly Grown In: Rosé is found all over the world these days, but coastal regions are especially well suited to the growing of red grapes for rosé. Key Facts: Rosé is predominantly made from red grape varieties. The colour of the wine is actually from pigments found in the skins of the grapes, so even red grapes have clear-coloured juice. The colour is then ‘bled’ out of the skins by infusing the skins into the juice. So for rosé, the wine simply spends far less time hanging out with the skins! Rarely you will find a rosé that is a combo of white and red grapes – they’re not ‘less good’, just less common. Rosé is super versatile – it suits any occasion. Best to always have a bottle in the fridge, just in case, you know… Wednesday happens or something. Fun Fact: As rosé lovers themselves - though no longer lovers of each other - Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie purchased vineyards and started their own rosé project in Southern France. To date, their rosé holds the record for the highest fetched price for a magnum of pink juice - £2,218!

Pairing guide
This chic rosé is stealing the summer spotlight. Crisp, lively, and bursting with flavour, it’s a dream partner for seafood antipasti (octopus salad if you can score some), salade niçoise, or a fresh spring veg risotto. It’s also a natural with spinach-and-ricotta combos, but don’t stop there - think light pasta, veggie-packed tacos, tortilla, and chargrilled veggies. Basically, this wine’s the ultimate all-rounder for any dish that's fresh and fun.
