A premium, elegant rosé made similar in style to the rosés of Provence, France. The individual parcels were harvested by hand at optimum ripeness and cooled overnight. The grapes were destemmed and crushed and the juice immediately drained from the press. Only the finest quality free run juice, with minimal extraction of colour was selected and settled. Spontaneous fermentation by indigenous yeast occurred in both stainless steel tanks and older French oak barrels (6%). The wine spent 2 months on the lees to develop a full, well-rounded palate before being blended and bottled. The colour could be described as a suggestion of a pink blush or pale coral. The appeal continues with its ruby grapefruit and raspberry bouquet. That same ruby grapefruit succulence and zesty tang can be found on the palate. It’s bright and immediately engaging. A soft floral edge then develops which adds to the texture and mouthfeel of the wine. Lovely rounded body and harmony of fruit and acidity. Lovely citrus zest and peppery edge on the long but dry finish. Alc:13.5% | PH. 3.23 | RS. 3.51 | TA. 5.6
