The reverse side of the roll up blanket has a waterproof protection to keep you as dry as your glass of rosé!

The elegant palate offers richness that is balanced by a good line of bright acidity and flavors of pink citrus, jasmine tea and orange blossom. This Rosé should be enjoyed in its youth, on its own, or alongside a variety of foods including fresh oysters, scallops, grilled chicken or even charcuterie.
