Description

 

The 2024 Twin Valleys Rosé is a delightful expression of the Alpine Valleys region. With its pale salmon hue, this wine is visually captivating and sets the stage for a refreshing and invigorating experience.

On the nose, alluring aromas of spiced black cherry and strawberries are complemented by a hint of white pepper spice. These are intermingled with delicate floral notes and blackcurrant, creating an enticing and complex bouquet. The first sip reveals a beautifully balanced wine, characterized by its crisp and lively acidity that dances playfully on the palate. The initial ripe blueberry notes are accompanied by citrus and a touch of melon, harmonizing together to give the wine a leaner finish than the initial fruit profile might suggest.

What sets this rosé apart is its graceful structure and versatility. Overall, the 2024 Twin Valleys Rosé is a testament to the exceptional 2024 vintage quality and character of the Alpine Valleys region. Its balance of ripe fruit, lively acidity, and complex aromatics make it an excellent choice for a wide range of culinary pairings or for enjoying on its own..
