Faultline Reserve Marlborough Rosé 2018

Description

"It is fabulously lifted on the nose showing sweet raspberry, watermelon, rockmelon and lemon peel aromas, followed by a mouth-wateringly tasty palate that is filled with youthful fruit flavours, backed by refreshing acidity. Instantly appealing and excellent value for money. 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 raspberry and ripe mandarin, the palate displays flavours of peach, watermelon and subtle nuances of pomegranate. Perfectly balanced with fine acidity and great persistence.

Grapes were machine harvested in the cool of the night in order to retain fresh fruit flavours. They then spent just a few hours on skins to extract the delicate amount of light strawberry colour seen in the bottle, 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 within the next 2-3 years. Vegetarian & Vegan friendly.

Food Pairing: A perfect aperitif or well matched with a summer salad and pan seared fish.
