PL ROSE
This Rosé, fresh and fruity, represents all the feelings of a Sicilian summer. Its colour is that of a summer sunset. The fresh aromas of strawberry make it a marvellously friendly wine, and easy to drink.
Enjoy Planeta’s Rosé in good company, as an aperitif with tapas, raw fish, fresh salads or alone with seasonal fruit.

TASTING NOTES: The delicate colour of Rosé reminds us of the elegance of a prima ballerina. Floral notes such as that of hibiscus and rose hip encounter hints of wild strawberries, blackberries and honeymelon. Lively and fresh in the mouth, memories of meringue, and recollects the pale flesh of peaches.
MATCHING: Perfect matching for any snack which you might think of during summer afternoons. Good as well with seafood and fried vegetables, tempura or sushi.
