2023 Domaine Denizot Osmoze Sancerre Rosé
Tasting Notes
Pale salmon pink with silver glints. The nose is delicate and fresh, opening with redcurrant, pink grapefruit, and wild strawberry. A hint of citrus zest adds lift. On the palate, the wine is crisp and precise, showing tart red fruit and a saline note over vibrant acidity. The finish is clean and mineral-driven, with a lingering whisper of citrus and florals.
