Description
Apricot, Dry, Spice
"Hues of pale apricot lead to a bouquet of peach and baked apple, fresh yellow plum and a lick of fruit spice. A dry wine touches the palate first then a line of acidity and core fruit flavours of plum and berries, apricot and a touch of lees reflecting the spice. Plush, fleshy textures, balanced and well made, a wine ready to enjoy form day of purchase through end of summer 2026" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2024
Beautifully refreshing, this is a subtle, elegant rose in a bone-dry style. The palate is finely textured, with a long, zesty, slate like finish. Enjoy this wine now rather than cellaring as it is unlikely to benefit from further aging.
A celebration of the love between our pioneering winemaker, Tom McDonald, and his supportive wife Gwen, who helped establish Church Road winery.
Food Pairing: A versatile and food friendly style of rose ideal as a refreshing aperitif, yet well suited to a range of lighter, fresher dishes, particularly where an element of umami features. Try with sashimi dishes or freshly shucked oysters.
