Description
"This is a fabulous Rosé showing ripe stone fruit, rockmelon, watermelon and floral characters on the nose, leading to a succulent palate that is fleshy and smooth. It is pristine and beautifully poised, offering plenty of attractive flavours. Wonderfully balanced and vibrant with a persistent delicious finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2018
This is a vibrant cool climate Rosé, pale pink in the glass with aromas of strawberry and melon on the nose. The palate is lively with raspberry and stone fruit flavours, subtle creaminess and a long fresh finish.
The fruit for this Mystery Rosé comes from a home vineyard, a raised ridge of stony soil. The free draining soils and cool dry climate are ideal for ripening the Pinot varieties.
The fruit was harvested in the fresh fruit flavour spectrum ideal for Rose, with the majority being pressed off and cool fermented, while a smaller portion spent more time on skins for added colour. The component wines spent the winter on lees to gain complexity and mouthfeel before the blend was assembled in the spring.
Food Pairing: Excellent on its own or with crayfish, prawns and salmon.

Lovely, easy going rose, with enough complexity to be interesting as well as enjoyable. Great value.
