Sensory Evaluation & Tasting Notes
• Appearance: A beautiful, bright light pink "onion skin" color featuring faint copper and bronze edges in the glass.
• Aroma: Highly expressive and complex. It leads with a delicate floral bouquet of pink rose petals and violets, closely followed by a bright burst of pomegranate, wild strawberries, and a touch of black pepper.
• Palate: Rich and fruity but strictly balanced. The wine delivers a lively, structured experience marked by a crisp, crunchy acidity and a distinctive savory sapidity (minerality) that extends into a persistent finish.
Food Pairings
While standard rosés are often reserved for light salads, the volcanic structure and texture of the Nerello Mascalese grape allow this wine to stand up to richer options. It pairs beautifully with aged and hard cheeses like Manchego and Parmesan, raw fish, sushi, or refined Mediterranean seafood dishes
