A light salmon pink dry rosé with an expressive nose full of sweet aromas of strawberries and candy. The sweet fruitiness of strawberry and red fruit returns on the palate, undercut by gentle but solid acidity. The intense minerality of the finish makes this an elegant and refined rosé, not just for warm summer evenings.
Food Pairing
Try with white fish, salads and light pasta dishes, or serve alongside fresh cheese such as Feta or Halloumi.

Expert Opinion
Elizabeth Gabay - Master of Wine - 91 points - Decanter April 2021
Dry herbal aromas, almost southern French garrigue in style. Luscious ripeness, typical of the Balaton region, balanced by delicate, crisp red fruit gained from cooler clay soils. A lovely juxtaposition of zingy redcurrants, cranberries and ripe creaminess, with silky texture giving a summer fruit compote finish.

Dobosi Winery,Balaton Wine Region - Protected Designation of Origin (PDO)
The Dobosi family started to cultivate grape vines in 1721, and with the tradition of winemaking passed from father to son, you can taste the 300 years of expertise. The family works 26.5 hectares in the picturesque Nivegy Valley just north of Lake Balaton, and selectively hand-harvests the ripe fruit. All of their grapes are grown organically, and natural methods are used in the vinification process. Made mostly from native grape varieties that are uniquely suited to the local soil and microclimate, each bottle of Dobosi wine captures the essence of the sunny Balaton Uplands.
