Elegant and fabulously expressed, the bouquet shows Gala apple, lemon peel and white floral aromas with a hint of pomegranate. The palate displays excellent focus and concentration, wonderfully framed by beautifully pitched acidity, finishing superbly long and refined. At its best: now to 2027.

Winemaking

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.
