SUMMARY

Modern classic winery, with respect for tradition. Situated in the north-east corner of Victoria, it is one of the most progressive and diverse viticultural regions in Australia.

TASTING NOTE

Our dry style Rosé is made from a blend of Grenache, Grenache Blanc, and Shiraz grapes. The wine has inviting aromas of strawberries, pomegranate, and confectionery. The palate is full of soft red berry flavours, subtle confectionery, with a hint of spiciness from the Grenache. Serve chilled to fully enjoy the crisp dry blend of sweet berry fruit, pepper and spice.

Food Match	REGION Rutherglen WINEMAKER Marc Scalzo VINEYARD Our Grenache is grown at the De Bortoli Shelley’s vineyard on the eastern edge of the Rutherglen region. The site produces a dry savoury Rosé wine with brightness and poise. The Grenache Blanc is from the Melville’s Vineyard, from an east facing site that enhances delicate varietal definition and flavour, whilst our Shiraz is from the Burgoyne’s Vineyard which we pick early to capture fresh red berry characters. SEASON Rutherglen experienced a warmer and dryer than average growing season. Most months in the growing season had maximum day time temperatures above the long term average by approx 3°C. Except for a wet November, every month had below average rainfall. The wet November set up the vineyards for the dryer Summer. Even though the maximum daytime temperatures were above average, there were no extreme weather events or extended heat wave periods, just extended hot weather. After Spring, there was very low disease pressure, and careful irrigation ensured the vines maintained a healthy canopy. All whites were picked in very good condition with good varietal flavours. The reds and our muscats benefited from the warm and dry season with some very good parcels of fruit making 2025 a very strong year with good intensity, colour whilst maintaining freshness. A vintage to savour. TASTING NOTE Our dry style Rosé is made from a blend of Grenache, Grenache Blanc, Shiraz, and Mourvedre grapes.

WINE STYLE Dry Rosé WINEMAKING The red grapes are pressed gently to capture the delicate, sweet fruit characters before any tannins have been extracted. All varieties are fermented separately using aromatic yeast and cool fermentation temperatures to enhance aromatics. The final blend is a fruit driven and delicious rosé.
