About this product
Semi Dry, Medium Bodied style of Tinta Cao, Graciano and Tinta MadieraBarossa Valley, AustraliaThe Barossa has two Spanish varieties being Grenache and Mataro which have a long history both here and in the EU. Rosenvale believes this area of the world has a few more varieties of interest so we planted our family vineyards with Tinta Cao, Graciano and Tinta Madeira with the sole purpose of making a Rose’ wine. The vineyards are young and on a modern trellis system.
We prune for target yields in consultation with mother nature and the vineyard is managed on a Dynamic viticulture system.
Winemaking Open fermented with 10 days on skins. Twice daily pump overs and gently pushing down the cap. After ferment is done, we press the juice from the skins with our computer controlled open slot air bag press to barrel. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation then we rack and return to barrel for maturation.
Tasting Notes Fresh raspberry, cherry, blueberry and spice aromas flow seamlessly through the palate. Silky plush tannins draw length and provide mouthfeel that see's the acid balance soft to the finish.

Medium bodied red wines have a lightly textured mouthfeel with moderate flavour impact. Often medium in colour.
Semi-dry wines are perceptibly sweet but leaning towards dry.
