michael godel: 2023 lastellina

A blend of nearly two-thirds percent cabernet franc and one-third merlot with a splash of sangiovese for a fruit forward and also quite honestly tannic Rosé. Very fresh and feeling like a wine that has yet to fully settle down and in, regardless of it being a Rosé. Crunchy and a bit salty with knowable red fruit moments, namely strawberry and cherry before sliding down into, resting and waiting in a structured hole. Will drink at its best towards the end of summer with grilled fishes, citrus sauces and peaches. Value rating 4/5.
