    Rich and fruity, this wine is a full-bodied rosé. It has ripe red fruits and a touch of tannin along with balanced acidity. With its up-front richness, it is a food wine, rather than an apéritif.

    The chalk soil of Barbebelle has given a stalky, textured and structured wine that is still young. Black currant fruits come through the dry tannins and herbal flavors. As it matures, these elements should work together well, so wait to drink until 2017.
