"It’s elegantly fragrant on the nose showing crunchy apple, apricot, raspberry and white floral nuances, followed by a brilliantly focused and finely flowing palate that’s beautifully poised and persistent. Gracefully slim and crisp-dry, offering fabulous drinking. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2022

"Bright, pale salmon, even colour throughout. This has an intense and elegant bouquet, soft aromas of field strawberries, raspberries interweave blossoms and a hint of lemon zest. Medium-light bodied, dry to taste, aromas of fresh field strawberries, raspberries have a taut core, unfolding blossoms, lemon zest and subtle minerals. The fruit is perfumed and concentrated, supported by vibrant acidity. The mouthfeel is round and smooth-flowing, carrying minerals and spice to a dry, crisp finish. This is a clean, crisp Rosé with excellent intensity of red fruit, taut acid drive and zesty spice details. Serve as an aperitif or match with sushi over the next 2 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews, Jul 2022

"Fantastic rose expression, young, fresh and vibrant. Core fruit flavours of fresh starwberries and red apple skin are accentuated by a lively acid line that dances the fruit across the palate. There’s a floral sweet rose, a whisper of turkish-delight and quince-like flavour as the wine opens in glass. Low fruit tannins, a light saline quality and lengthy youthful finish. Best drinking from late 2022 through 2024" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Jul 2022

"Weighty, textural Rosé with green apple, oyster shell, raspberry, white peach and lemon grass flavours supported by mouth-watering and fruity acidity. Bone-dry. Good food wine. Made from an undisclosed blend of red and white grape varieties" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2022

Pale pink in colour, this Mediterranean style rosé is savoury with aromas of Himalayan pink salt, overlaying nuances of watermelon, persimmon, peach, and wild strawberry. The zesty palate exudes blackcurrant, crushed red berries, sherbet, and a seasoning of umami. This elegant rosé is perfectly poised with a chalky texture, delivering a mouthwatering, generous, and dry finish.

Grapes were harvested in the early morning from vineyards in the Southern Valleys.

Very good intensity of flavour and aromatics this year, due to great fertility in the vineyards and late summer rains. 2022 wines have expressive aromatics, great energy and fresh lively acidity with a tight structure on the palate.

Treated as a white wine in the cellar, this rosé was pressed off skins early and fermented cold in stainless steel to accentuate fruit purity. The wine was then aged on light yeast lees for two months to gain complexity and increase mouthfeel.
