Each year, we strive to make a delicate, “French style” Rosé from Heathcote: pale peach in colour, with soft and delicate fruit character. In 2021, we made our rosé from Grenache, seeking out the subtle aromas of strawberry, rose petals and pomegranate. We kept it fresh and crisp, with crunchy acidity.

Light on the feet, dances across the palate. Freshly cut strawberries and peaches, perfectly ripe in a bowl with a generous ladle of cream to pair. Decent natural acid on the finish from an early pick, has a great mid-palate carry and then a light crisp wash to clean things up ready for another slurp.
