"Pristine and elegantly fragrant, showing raspberry, crunchy apple, kiwifruit and lime zest aromas, followed by a lively palate that's light and refreshing. Delightfully charming and immediately appealing Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2024

"Very bright, with a pale apricot hue, leading to scents and flavours of pears, fresh apples, tropical fruits, and gooseberry, followed by a hint of saffron and apricot. Crisp and dry, with a lower alcohol content (9.5%), and plenty of acidity to carry the fruit flavours and add texture. Balanced, well-made, and ready to drink from 2024 through the end of summer 2026" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

"Bright, even, very pale salmon. The nose is fresh and familiar, with aromas of citrus, tomato vine, strawberry and raspberry. Light-bodied, aromas of lime and raspberry have a taut core intermixed with strawberry, a hint of tomato vine and zest. The wine is packed with vibrant fruit alongside mouthwatering acidity, and a touch of sweetness fills the mid-palate, lending a thirst-quenching closing" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, May 2025

Aromas of fresh Peony and Summer berries. On the palate, its bursting with juicy fruit flavours and a hint of black currant on the finish. Enjoy now or keep cellared for up to two years.

Picked early in the season to when the fruit flavours were just right. The grapes were left on their skins for minimal hours to draw out a soft pink hue before being gently pressed. After the juice settled, it was fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruits flavour and freshness. Once fermentation was complete, the wine underwent stabilisation, filtration, and meticulous preparation for bottling.

Food Pairing: Our Rosé pairs well with classic summer dishes making it simply perfect for those lighter evenings around the BBQ.
