Drinking Window: 2022 - 2023
A tasty discovery last year, this Corsican pink has impressed again with this new vintage. Pale, bone dry, light-bodied and with low alcohol – all it needs is a screwcap to be perfect picnic fare – it has a firm, steely acid spine, and bright red berry and grapefruit flavours.
