Gorgeous, savoury Beechworth Rosé from a winemaker on the rise.
98% Sangiovese and 2% Aglianico, picked specifically for Rose, rather than Saignee method production. Barrel fermented and aged on lees, to impart texture, and matured in oak (one-third new).

90 Points Huon Hooke Light pink colour with a tinge of purple; the aromas are meaty and sausagey, a little reductive, while the palate is juicy and soft with perhaps the faintest touch of sweetness, perfectly judged. But it's undoubtedly a dry style. The acidity is vibrant and powers the wine along beautifully.The flavours are very appealing.
