BETTANE+DESSEAUVE

Score : 15/20

Fruité rouge frais (fraise), bouche savoureuse et magnifique fraîcheur en fin de bouche, un rosé avec de la couleur. 

 

WINE ADVOCATE

Score : 90

Guigal's plump, medium-bodied 2018 Cotes du Rhone Rose is a reminder that this family firm continues to value flavor throughout its lineup. Hints of strawberries, white peach and melon join with citrus to make a bold impression yet one that's not inelegant, finishing long and silky.
