Tasting Notes

The 2017 Prestige Rosé is another beautiful rosé from this estate. Spice, underbrush, cherries, citrus blossom and beautiful minerality all emerge from the glass and it’s rich, yet also fresh and crisp. It's a food rosé to drink over the coming year. It’s a blend of 60/40 Grenache and Cinsault aged in tank.

Pale pink in colour. Ripe red fruits dominate the nose along with a hint of roses and boiled sweets. Those pure fruits are again evident on the palate - strawberries, redcurrants, and ripe peach are all held together by a laser-like acidity that continues through to an impressive finish. As always, there is plenty of fruit here for those looking for a juicy, ripe rosé but it is all kept in check by the fantastic balance that is the hallmark of this wine. It is all finished off by a lovely roundness on the palate. This is a must-buy for the summer sun.
