From the world’s oldest Grenache vines, planted in 1948, the 2025 Rosato is a refined and vibrant expression of Barossa heritage. Sourced from the more vigorous north-western section of the vineyard, the fruit was harvested in mid-March and gently crushed before a slow press over 4–6 hours to achieve delicate colour and flavour extraction. Cool fermentation in stainless steel at 15–16°C, followed by early bottling, preserved freshness, purity, and aromatic lift.
In the glass, it reveals a bright glossy pink hue. The bouquet is fragrant and lifted, showing aromas of fresh red currant, cranberry and soft rose florals, with a subtle savoury edge adding complexity and intrigue.
The palate is energetic and finely balanced, driven by vibrant acidity and a silky texture. Bright flavours of ripe strawberry, cherry are layered with hints of pomegranate and delicate spice, leading into a mouth-watering finish with excellent length and clarity.
Crafted in the spirit of Southern Italian Rosato, this wine is vibrant and effortlessly food friendly and perfect for enjoying young alongside Mediterranean cuisine, fresh seafood, charcuterie, or summer antipasti.
