Domaine Tariquet Marselan Rosé Contradiction

Domaine Tariquet Marselan Rosé Contradiction is an exceptional rosé from Gascony that truly lives up to its name: it unites seemingly contradictory characteristics in a harmonious, modern wine. The Marselan grape variety – a cross between Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache – contributes a more robust, deeper aromatic profile than classic rosé varieties, while remaining fresh and light-bodied.

In the glass, it shines with an intense, vibrant pink hue and red highlights, enticing the palate with an expressive bouquet of ripe strawberries, raspberries, red cherries, and a hint of pomegranate , complemented by subtle spice and floral notes. On the palate, it surprises with a beautiful balance of fruity richness and invigorating freshness – structured enough to pair well with food, yet approachable enough for uncomplicated enjoyment. The acidity is lively, and the finish is long and fruity-fresh.

Served at 8–10 °C, this rosé pairs perfectly with grilled fish, seafood, antipasti, light pasta dishes, or summer salads. A modern Gascon rosé with a distinct character and a charming individuality that sets it apart from the crowd of classic rosé wines.
