"Pristine and bright, it's elegantly lifted on the nose with nectarine, raspberry, Gala apple and jasmine nuances, leading to a finely flowing palate that's ripe and fleshy. Light and delicate, yet persistent and delectable. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2023
"Salmon, apricot and pink hues lead to a bouquet of peach and red apple, some whispers of red berry and cherry then a lick of saffron. Aromatic with light floral notes then mineral. On the palate crisp and new, vibrant and fruity. Flavours mirror the bouquet and are accentuated by acidity and youthful fruit power. A dry finish offering best drinking from summer 2024 through end of summer 2026" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Jul 2023
This wine has a beautiful salmon colour. The aroma is a lovely combination of rose petals, red liquorice, fennel, and sea breeze. The palate has a delicate balance of red berries, watermelon, spice, and Provence herb flavours. The taste is refreshing and juicy, with a subtle savoury undertone and a perfectly balanced light acidity to finish.
This year's vintage of our Rosé is exceptional, possibly one of the best in the last ten years. The mild summer weather allowed the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly, producing concentrated and distinct flavours. Ideal weather conditions allowed us to harvest the grapes at the optimal moment. Inspired by founder Dave Clouston's long stints in Corsica and the South of France, our Rosé is Mediterranean in style; it is fresh, crisp, dry, and light. It was achieved by fermenting it at a low temperature in stainless steel tanks to maintain its fruit purity and varietal character.
Food Pairing: Most enjoyable when shared with a group of friends, all while indulging in a delicious and extensive charcuterie board.
