The 2022 Special Selection Rosé of Sangiovese defies any idea that pink wines are wimps! The aromas of ripe strawberries, red cherries, and floral rose petals lead into a palate bursting with juicy watermelon, wild raspberries, and a hint of citrus zest. A crisp acidity and delicate minerality create a lively mouthfeel, while the dry, refreshing finish leaves a lasting impression of bright fruit and subtle herbal undertones.
This versatile and food-friendly rosé pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Its vibrant acidity enhances grilled seafood, such as lemon-herb shrimp or seared tuna, while its fruit-forward nature complements light pasta dishes, including tomato-basil spaghetti or creamy pesto. The wine also pairs well with Mediterranean cuisine, such as antipasto platters, caprese salads, or marinated olives. Whether enjoyed on its own or alongside a meal, this rosé is perfect for any occasion.
