Barossa Valley, Australia
About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of RoséBarossa Valley, AustraliaThe 2023 vintage was 3-4 weeks later than the ‘new normal’ of the past 20 years.
Due to La Niña climatic patterns, spring rainfall was one of the wettest on record, with an additional 131% more rain than the long-term average. The constant winter rain created some Downy Mildew disease risk. Summer days were sunny, both maximum and minimum temperatures average. There were no summer heatwaves. Only 32 days above 30C (and 13 days above 35C) for the entire summer. Veraison did not occur in many varieties until Feb (usually Jan) and harvest did not begin until early March. March and April were relatively fine, but a few rainfall events caused some disease pressure, keeping both growers and winemakers on their toes with crop management and picking dates.
Colour: Bright, Bronze with copper highlights.
Aroma: Delicate perfume of cherry, rose petal and strawberries & cream with subtle cinnamon spice.
Palate: Creamy fruit-sweet mid palate with flavours of melon, rhubarb and white cherry.
This bone-dry style is textural with fresh crunchy red-apple acidity and delicate fruit phenolics. A rose’ to be enjoyed all year round!
