Barbichette 'Oui Non' Rouge 2024 (750ml)

"This bottle is just as zippy and bright as its color suggests — a light, juicy, and refreshing rosé to quench any thirst. Think of it like grown-up cherry cola. With notes of muddled raspberry, fresh cranberry, and maraschino liqueur, it’s sunny and coy; your ideal first drink of the day. In texture, it’s round and plush (but not rich), with a sturdy acid backbone.
This co-ferment of chardonnay, merlot, pinot noir, and seyval blanc is the sort of wine that will disappear quickly (trust us, we know)((oui non))." - Barbichette
