From: Rosé Revolution: Light Red is the New Pink (May 2025)
Delicate and graceful the Rosé Minuty 281 opens slowly with a perfumed blend of mint-laced white peaches, cardamom and dusty stone. It's texturally deep and supple with cooling acidity as a wave of ripe apricot and nectarine washes across the palate, leaving a subtle mineral tinge toward the close. This is undeniably elegant, finishing with a kiss of autumnal spice and candied citrus. - Eric Guido - By Billy Norris on May 2025
