Lillet Apertif Rose

Pretty pale salmon pink appearance. Enticing aroma includes notes of rose water, plum and ripe cherry / strawberry along side hints of ripe grapefruit. A clean, fresh delivery offers a light to medium bodied palate of plum and cherry flavors supported by soft, cleansing acidity. Cherry glace finish is delightfully fresh, dry and deceptively long as hints of rose petal emerge late in the aftertaste.NOSE - Light aromas of berries, orange blossom and grapefruitMOUTH - Fresh, lively and fruity. Balanced structure. Slightly acidic.FINISH - Long aromasLillet is the only wine-based aperitif, a blend of 85% wine and 15% citrus liqueurs, produced in Bordeaux, France. The wines are carefully selected in the Podensac area and the citrus liqueurs are produced by cold macerating fruit peels in pure distilled spirits for several months. Following the Bordelaise tradition, Lillet is aged in oak so that it acquires its soft and rich character. Because it is not oxidized or aromatized with herbs like vermouths, nor artificially concentrated, Lillet is a very unique product.
