Technical
vintage
We had a mild spring with adequate soil moisture, resulting in a slightly later season. A moderate summer led to ideal ripening conditions with little pressure in the vineyard and a lack of any major rain events during the ripening season. Consistently warm days and cool evenings made for great retention of acid within the grapes, whilst achieving optimal fruit expression.
winemaking
A modern style, salmon pink rose was created in the winery, with specifically chosen fruit batches that were handled with temperature controlled, low oxygen winemaking techniques. This ensured a fine, light-bodied wine was produced for early blending and bottling to capture to prime rose drinking window of summertime at the beach or in the backyard.

Reviews
Halliday Wine Companion, November 2023
An attractive pale dusty pink, a little estery with cherry-berry and peppermint flavours. There’s a smidge of texture, a burst of sweet red berries across the palate and enough acidity to rein it all in.
