Pale pink, it is vibrantly fruity, with fresh, very generous strawberry, watermelon, peach and spice flavours, showing excellent delicacy, and a dry, harmonious finish. Already delicious, it offers top drinking through the summer of 2023-24.

Winemaking
Treated as a white wine in the cellar, this rosé was pressed off skins early and fermented cold in stainless steel to accentuate fruit purity. The wine was then aged on light yeast lees for two months to gain complexity and increase mouthfeel.
