Description

Although Rose is commonly perceived as a fun, playful, every day wine, we as winemakers fnd it one of the most challenging wines to make in the cellar. Reason being is there needs to be great emphasis put on achieving a light as possible colour with also extracting the essential components from the berries. This remains a fnd balance and takes years of experience. Selected sections of a Cabernet and Shiraz blocks are specifcally targeted for our Rose production, grapes are picked once we have achieved beautiful fruit favours in the berries, but also before we cross a threshold, whereafter we convert too much sugar to alcohol. Grapes are picked in 17kg lugboxes by hand in the break of day. After grapes arrive at the cellar, grapes are quickly processed to the press, for a gentle squeeze at very low pressures and recoveries to ensure minimal colour extraction. The must is then settled for 2 days, whereafter the must is racked and inoculated in old 225 L barrels for fermentation. The wines are racked and returned to these same barrels for a further 6 months of barrel ageing. Regular battonage is performed in these wines, that generates a lovely textured palate that still puts emphasis on the fruit Sweet, juicy candy foss and cranberry sweets. Textured and creamy palate, with ample freshness from the acidity and a salivating after taste A beautiful wine, perfect on its own, but also the ideal partner to most seafood dishes, crayfsh, fresh steak tartare and ceviche
