Made from Pinot Noir and spending 36 hours on skins, this Holm Oak Rosé is a little darker in the glass than some with a watermelon juice appearance that tempts the eye.
The barrel work is obvious (20% drained off from red ferments and wild yeast fermented in barrel) with its creamy drive that frames strawberries, red cherries and red currants. A phenolic grip elevates its appeal adding dimension to match with casual dishes, while a red apple crunch sweeps through the finish. Bright and versatile, this is ideal for an aperitif or weekend barbecue in the sun. A big tick from me.
