2021 Clos Alivu Patrimonio Rose - Ile de Beaute, Corsica, France (750ml)

This delicate and silky rosé hails from Patrimonio– Corsica’s oldest and most widely known appellation, with 50+ year old vines and only Corsician native varietals planted. 100% Niellucciu, a very close relative to Sangiovese, the Clos Alivu is mineral driven, with aromas of strawberry, peach, and orange zest complimented by lavender on the palate and a touch of honey in the finish. Pair it with soft cheeses like brie or goat, and grilled meats like pork chops or salmon.
