2018 Reserve Pinot Rose

This Rosé was made entirely from the 777 clone of Pinot Noir grown at our Bowral vineyards.

The grapes were specifically picked for Rosé, crushed and pressed to yield a lightly coloured red juice which was subsequently fermented like a white wine.

There are bright, fresh aromas of spiced strawberry, red apple, watermelon and cranberry. Note that at this youthful stage (August ’18) there is quite a bit of aromatic fruit ester present in the form of pineapple/banana. This will subside as time goes on. It acts to give a lift to the aroma profile.

The fleshy palate is generously flavoured with juicy ripe strawberry and cranberry flavours throughout, concluding in a satisfying and dry finish.

Overall, this is a delicious, easy drinking style, perfect for the warmer weather.

Great with hors d’oeuvres, or just by itself!

Serve chilled. Drink now to 2022.
