Description
87pts... the wine delivers terrific value and drinkability
"A very likable, refreshing Rosé, the lifted bouquet shows stone fruit, rockmelon, citrus and dill characters with a hint of ripe strawberries. It is juicy and flavoursome on the palate, and displays attractive fruit intensity and vibrancy, finishing persistent and pleasingly dry. The wine delivers terrific value and drinkability. At its best: now to 2017." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2016.
A blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Malbec grape varieties which were selected from vineyards sites capable of reaching optimum flavour intensity.
Aromas of strawberry and fresh ripe blackcurrant. The palate displays fresh flavours of passionfruit, cranberry and 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 you see 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.
Ideal served chilled on a warm summer’s day with grilled fish and a fresh summer salad.
This wine is perfect for drinking now or best consumed within the next two years.

A consistently good wine, year-on-year, and my earlier comments hold true: “This is a very fine rose that is neither too sweet, nor too dry. Not all rose’s land in the ‘just right’ category, and this one does. Great summertime drinking – you won’t be disappointed.”
