Description

  • Fresh berries
  • Raspberry leaf
  • Soft florals
  • Vibrant, mid-dry style

"Bright and fresh, this charming wine shows raspberry, watermelon, nectarine and floral characters on the nose, leading to a finely textured palate that is juicy and lively. The wine offers delectable fruit flavours with whispering sweetness, brilliantly framed by vibrant acidity, making it highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2019

A blend of Riesling and Malbec grape varieties sourced from selected vineyard sites capable of reaching optimum flavour intensity. With delicious aromas of fresh ripe mandarin and apple blossom aromatics, the palate displays flavours of freshly picked raspberries and subtle nuances of raspberry leaf.  A delicious off dry Rose with fine acidity and great persistence.

The fruit was machine harvested early at a low Brix level in order to target a lower alcohol and a bright fruit spectrum.   The grapes spent only a few hours on skins to extract the delicate flavor, aroma and colour then carefully pressed.  After settling the juice was fermented in 100 per cent stainless steel at cooler temperatures to retain fruit flavour and freshness.

This wine is perfect for drinking now or best consumed in the next 2-3 years.

Food Pairing: Ideal chilled on a warm summer’s day with fresh fish and green salad.

Always great value for money. You don't need to spend a fortune on a tasty wine.

Not a bad rose for the money. At 10% its low alcohol so can be enjoyed as a sunny afternoon quaffer.
