Tasting Notes and Food Pairing Suggestions

  • Sweet potato pancakes with crème fraiche

  • Fritto misto with clams, shrimp, and calamari

This pale salmon sparkling rosé from the Loire Valley opens with enticing buttery brioche and pastry aromas and moves into a soft, creamy mouthful of crushed raspberries, wild strawberries, rose petals, and candied violets. Feminine and pretty, with invigorating acidity, this is fun stuff that goes down VERY easily.
