Sale Sold out
Tax included.

This Rosé is made from bush vines of Grenache and Mataro specifically managed with the intention of making a savoury, just ripe style of dry Rosé.

These varieties are perfect for bush vines growing in sand, being upright growers and water wise. The grapes were picked by hand early and made to be textural and refreshing. The wine is just ripe, grippy, fresh and delicious - it almost doesn't matter what the varieties are. 

2024 was a consistent year, warm with early budburst and rain at the right time. 

Limited quantities available.

Fruit from a small section of bush vines grown on deep sand from own rooted Grenache and Mataro. Vine ages range from ~30 years to for the larger portion plus some first crop junior vines planted from cuttings out of the oldest vines on Vinya Vella.

Winemaking

Fruit was hand harvested and de-stemmed, then given 36 hours skin contact before pressing. Fermentation was in stainless steel and old oak, then the wine was stored in neutral large old oak prior to bottling.

Reviews

"This is a ripping rose. Wow this is more-ish. Strawberry, red cherry, watermelon and sweet spice notes, with twigs and florals tossed through. It’s a rosé to its back teeth and yet it has an intensity; it makes an impression. It carries beautifully through the finish too. And then notes of chalk and citrus rind seal through the back palate just the deal. This is a pearler of a rosé."

- Campbell Mattinson, 94 Points, The Wine Front. December 2024
