Get to know: Calusari Pinot Rosé

A delightfully fresh Romanian rosé wine made from Pinot Noir grapes.

Tasting Note

Calusari Pinot Rosé is a vibrant and refreshing style that brings together bright fruit with a delicate, dry finish. Pale pink in colour with aromas of strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant, and a gentle floral lift. On the palate, it’s light and crisp with flavours of cranberry, ripe berries, and a subtle hint of spice. Clean and mouthwatering, this dry Pinot Noir rosé has an easy-going charm that makes it perfect for both food and relaxed sipping. A brilliant example of modern Romanian winemaking delivering great value.

  • Summer salads with citrus dressing
  • Cold roast chicken or charcuterie platters
