Fresh, aromatic and so damn easy to drink.A blend of blend of 50% Grenache, 22% Cabernet with the remainder made up of Shiraz, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir.
Brief skin contact and a six week cold fermentation of free run juice is all the technical detail you need to know.
This wine rescued me on a near forty degree Brisbane summer afternoon, and what a rescue package it was.
Fresh and balanced. Scented with dried red flowers, it's deliciously moreish with an abundance of red fruit. There's a touch of spice to finish. Not too sweet nor too dry, this is a cracker and something for other Rosés to aspire to.
Serve icy cold with a big smile!
Stick it on the shopping list.
