Dominique Portet Fontaine Rosé 2022 (Yarra Valley)
Dominique Portet Fontaine Rosé 2022 (Yarra Valley)
Dozen Price: $275.88
RRP: $25.00
In true Provence style, this 2022 vintage Fontaine Rosé from Dominique Portet is pale salmon in colour. With aromas of cherry blossom, and ripe red berries. The berry spectrum continues on the palate, but think ripe, plum, juicy berries; add to that some stone fruit and its almost like a Peach Melba in a glass - plenty of freshness and poise but with weight, body and creaminess. As bright as the light over the Mediterranean, with a long dry, crisp finish.
