A Feast for the Senses: Tasting Notes

The AIX Rosé Magnum boasts a beautiful salmon pink colour, captivating the eye with its summery hues. On the nose, a wave of fresh aromas unfolds, brimming with notes of ripe red berries like strawberries and raspberries. Delicate hints of white peach and citrus blossom add a touch of complexity, while subtle floral nuances reminiscent of roses and lavender complete the enticing bouquet.

The first sip is a burst of refreshing acidity, balanced by a smooth and elegant texture. The flavours on the palate mirror the aromas, with a predominance of juicy red fruits complemented by hints of citrus and white stone fruits. The wine displays a well-rounded structure, with a touch of minerality adding depth and intrigue. The finish is clean and crisp, lingering pleasantly on the palate.

Food Pairings: A Perfect Match for Every Occasion

The versatility of the AIX Rosé Magnum makes it a fantastic accompaniment to a wide range of dishes. Here are some suggestions to elevate your dining experience:

  • Starters and Salads: Enjoy the rosé's vibrant acidity alongside light and flavourful starters. Pair it with a fresh goat cheese salad drizzled with honey, a platter of cured meats and olives, or a seafood salad with a zesty lemon dressing.
  • Summer BBQ: The refreshing character of the rosé cuts through richer flavours, making it ideal for a summer barbecue. Grilled fish, chicken, or vegetable skewers will be perfectly complemented by this wine.
  • Mediterranean Cuisine: The Provençal roots of the AIX Rosé Magnum make it a natural fit for Mediterranean cuisine. Roasted vegetables with herbs, creamy pasta dishes with pesto, or a moussaka will be enhanced by the wine's bright fruit flavours and acidity.
  • Desserts: For a delightful conclusion to your meal, consider pairing the rosé with lighter desserts that won't overpower its delicate flavours. Opt for a fruit tart, a goat cheese cheesecake, or a panna cotta with fresh berries.
