About the Dish
A fresh and fruity rosé. A charming fruit flavor reminiscent of pomegranate and strawberry, and a crisp and smooth comfort. I made the representative appetizer “Rillette” with lamb. Rillettes are usually very time-consuming, but the recipe is super simple. The lamb rillettes, which are light yet have a firm aftertaste, are an excellent pairing with a light rosé.
