TASTING NOTES:

COLOR: Garrus exhibits a very delicate pink colour, with a soft and luminous intensity reminiscent of old gold at its core. The transition towards the edges is a paler, almost transparent shade, suggesting its freshness and its time in oak barrels, which leave a subtle but elegant mark. The wine sparkles in the glass, displaying a clarity and finesse that invite contemplation, with pearly reflections that speak of its complexity and evolution in the bottle.

NOSE: The nose of Garrus is a fascinating sensory journey that slowly opens in layers, revealing an aromatic complexity out of the ordinary for a rosé. At first, it offers an explosion of ripe white fruits, such as juicy pear, green apple and peach at just the right point of ripeness, enveloping the senses with their freshness. As the wine breathes, floral notes of jasmine and orange blossom are revealed, giving it a delicate and elegant air. A deeper background introduces a hint of dried Mediterranean herbs, such as rosemary and lavender, and a light fragrance of toasted almond, which intertwines with subtle nuances of vanilla and butter, a product of its barrel aging. The aromatic complexity of Garrus is a reflection of its terroir and its meticulous winemaking process, with no one note imposing itself over the other, creating a captivating harmony.

TASTE: On the palate, Garrus offers an equally sophisticated experience. The entry is smooth, almost silky, with a creamy texture that envelops the palate and unfolds with remarkable amplitude. Its acidity is vibrant but perfectly balanced, providing freshness and structure while softening the richer sensations of the wine. White fruits and citrus, such as bitter orange and lemon, combine with a fine minerality, which brings a saline touch to the whole, evoking the breeze of the Mediterranean Sea. This subtle salinity gives it an unexpected dimension, broadening its taste profile and leaving a refreshing sensation in the aftertaste. The finish is long, elegant and persistent, with a slight aftertaste of sweet spices and a well-integrated hint of wood, offering lasting complexity and a reminder of the elegance that marks this wine as something truly special.
