Nose

Rasberries, rose petals and red cherries on the nose are complemented by a silky texture and balanced acidity.

Palate

Our 2021 Rosé combines great freshness and lightness in a wine that is still complex and satisfying. Medium-bodied and light on its feet, our Rocky Road Rosé displays intense forest berries and a satisfying, dry finish, making for a perfect summer drink.

Growing Conditions

The season started out with a cooler, wet spring which resulted in a lower fruit set for some varieties such as Chardonnay. We experienced above average rainfalls in early spring, meaning extra effort was required in our organically grown vineyards to mitigate disease pressure. Spring rolled into summer with long warm and dry days, however a couple of rain events in February and March required extra effort from our committed vineyard team in terms of canopy management and fruit selection at harvest.

Bottling

Bottled in September and just in time for Spring.

Winemaking

The Shiraz Fruit was picked in the early hours of the morning from our Calgardup Brook Vineyard. It was gently pressed to tank, and a slow and cool fermentation was encouraged by an extended time on fine lees over the Winter months.
