Roséfine 2013
For summer 2014, Marrenon has created a new rosé cuvée: Roséfine, a surprising, subtle and fresh wine.
Its name evokes all the elegance and charm of the Mediterranean. Cuvée Roséfine 2013, IGP Méditerranée, is a blend of Grenache noir, Syrah and Merlot. Roséfine 2013 draws all its delicacy from the Marrenon vineyard, located entirely within the Luberon Natural Park. This mid-altitude environment reflects its fresh, delicate style.
Roséfine 2013 reveals lovely citrus notes, enhanced by a pretty floral touch. Ideal as an aperitif, cuvée Roséfine 2013 is also perfect with grilled fish brochettes and ratatouille, or stuffed fish.
Roséfine 2013 is available from all good wine merchants at an average retail price of €5.20.
