Tasting Profile
Soleil continues the tradition of bringing a touch of Southern France to your glass. Starting with vibrant aromas of cherry, stone-fruit, and hints of cool, bright Mandarin orange, the silken palate reveals nectarine, strawberry and touches of wild thyme. Refreshing minerality blends with ripe peach and white cherry for a tasty finish that leaves you wanting more.
Pairings
The 2022 Rosé Soleil from Callaway Winery is a vibrant and refreshing wine that pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Its bright acidity and delicate fruit notes make it an excellent match for light seafood dishes like grilled shrimp, seared scallops, or citrus-marinated salmon. The wine’s crispness also complements fresh salads with goat cheese, strawberries, or citrus vinaigrettes. For a more savory pairing, try it with charcuterie boards, featuring prosciutto, brie, and dried apricots. Its versatility extends to spicy cuisines such as Thai or Mexican, where its fruit-forward profile balances bold flavors. Whether enjoyed with a meal or on its own, this rosé is perfect for warm afternoons and al fresco dining.
