Tasting Notes

At release, the wine is a vibrant salmon pink colour.

At release, the wine has lifted, fruit aromas of fresh strawberry and raspberry with hints of ripe watermelon & faint musk. Floral aromas of rose petal and carnation complete the pretty picture.

This wine is medium-bodied with fresh and delicate flavours of strawberry and raspberry fruit balanced with hints of mineral talc. The wine has an enjoyable soft textured mid-palate with enough lively acid to keep it refreshing and the finish is dry.
Vinification

The fruit for this wine was sourced from our grower partner in the Adelaide Hills. It was harvested in the cool of the night and quickly transferred to the winery where it was whole-berry handled directly to our refrigerated Pera pneumatic press. There the fruit was left to cold soak on skins until the desired colour was achieved. The grapes were then very gently pressed and the blush coloured juice transferred to stainless steel tanks for fermentation. Following primary fermentation the wine was chilled, racked and stabilised to lock in the natural intensity and purity of the fruit flavours. The wine was then filtered and bottled in September 2016.
