A blush pink with intense and joyful aromas. The initial aroma is a delicate combination of citrus, tropical fruit and white blackcurrant which makes way for an explosion of aromas bursting with complex white fruit, vine peach, salty, spicy and white pepper notes. A scent made in heaven melts into a dreamy mouthfeel enhanced by the wine's body and intense grip.
Best served chilled (10-12°) rather than cold so the 281 can be beautifully paired with flavoursome dishes, premium shellfish whether it be served simply like roasted lobster, rock lobster in banana leaf or cooked in a scallop risotto. Spicy dishes like Peking duck for its sweet and sour flavour, beef curry for its fragrant spices or delicious yakitori grilled with its sweet sauce. Summery salads served with lobster, avocado and grapefruit quarters. Sophisticated berry desserts.

This is a serious rosé, still young and tight. Its future and aging potential come from the wine's density and beautifully perfumed character. With a little time, this will be a splendid wine. Drink from 2023.

Light but racy and chiseled in feel, with sleek herb, peach and sea salt notes that have nice understated tension through the finish. Grenache and Syrah. Drink now.
