Rollick Coastal Days Barossa Valley Rosé 2022 (6 bottles)

A trip across the Nullarbor is worth doing once in your life. From SA to WA, we were rewarded with the most spectacular beaches when we arrived. Crystal clear water, pristine white sand, friendly (mostly) wildlife. One night we camped in the back of the ute at a local haven, watching the sunset over the water, wine in hand, blissfully tired from swimming all day. It was good for the soul. This rosé is for those sun-kissed, coastal days or the ones spent dreaming about them.

Ooh, tell me more about the wine...

Dry in style and tantalising for the tastebuds....

Machine picked grapes were picked in the cool, early hours of the morning and allowed to macerate on their skins to gain colour and texture. Once we were happy with the colour achieved, the grapes were tipped directly into the press to separate the juice from the pulp. The wine was gently racked off of gross lees before fermentation in stainless steel. Following fermentation, regular lees stirring was employed to build texture and mouthfeel. The wine was then blended and bottled post vintage.
