The Wine:
This is a carefully considered and made Rosé, which begins by selecting fruit from dedicated parts of the vineyard to ensure fruit freshness and a trademark chalky fine finish. After hand-picking the fruit is placed in the coolroom overnight and then whole-bunch pressed the following morning. This ensures delicate, pale and beautifully flavoured juice. Final blend was 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Shiraz. 95% pf the juice is fermented in stainless steel with the remaining 5% fermented in used French oak hogsheads to enhance texture and mouthfeel.
Brilliant and clear in appearance with a pale copper blush and a vibrant salmon hue. The nose opens up with delicate jasmine florals, candied orange and wild strawberries with just a hint of bay leaf. The palate is brimming with fresh cassis, juicy red currants, strawberry and a touch a passionfruit pith and is finely and textured with lovely fruit weight. This single vineyard Rose has a trademark long, chalky line and a delicate, dry finish that will leave you salivating for more!
