Trumpeter Rosé 75cl is a stylish Argentine Rosé de Malbec from Rutini Wines, a producer known for expressing the character of Mendoza through high-altitude vineyards at the foothills of the Andes. The Trumpeter range was created to offer elegant, characterful wines that reflect the strength of each grape variety and the favourable growing conditions of the region.
Tasting Notes
Trumpeter Rosé pours a limpid rosé colour with a raspberry touch and lilac nuances. On the nose and palate, it shows fresh red fruit notes including cherry, strawberry and gooseberry, supported by a subtle floral profile and a lightly citric edge. The lees contact adds a little more volume in the mouth, while the finish stays refined and dry.
Food Pairing
This rosé is very flexible at the table. The producer recommends pairing it with dishes such as guacamole, cold cuts, rice with seafood, paella Valenciana, crab, carpaccio, grilled sardines, anchovies, prawn risotto, Portuguese-style chicken stew and lamb cheeses. It also works well as an aperitif. Serve it well chilled at 9°C to 11°C.
Accolades
I could not verify a producer-published medal or a major critic score for this exact bottling from the sources I checked. A current community benchmark is its 3.7/5 rating on Vivino from 257 ratings at the time of checking.
Smooth rosé.. really great quality for its price
