Pétula is a very distinguished rosé, combining power and freshness. Its expressive nose delivers fine notes of small red berries, a touch of Maras des Bois and passion fruit. The palate is juicy, greedy and tangy. The finish lingers on white-fleshed fruit and hints of mango. A fresh, fruity rosé to enjoy with any meal!

Note and review by M. GILLES D. Published on 09/07/2024
An iconic cuvée from Vignobles Marrenon. And with good reason: the palate is conquered by the delicacy and freshness that merge harmoniously with notes of red berries, exotic aromas and fine spices, coupled with a lovely roundness. The soft, mellow feel carries through to a full, richly fruity finish. As a bonus, a soft, stable price. We crunch and fall for the assertive character of Pétula, which was very much at ease from the aperitif to the Provençal-style red tuna dish. Score = 3.9.
