This Rosé is crafted using the Saignee method, where juice is gently bled from Farr Rising Pinot Noir fruit to achieve its delicate color and intensify flavors before undergoing barrel fermentation.
It's been absent for too long—I’ve truly missed it. In the glass, it shows a pale onion-skin hue, while the nose offers ripe fruit aromas layered with complex oak notes. Rather than overt woodiness, there’s a subtle almond or marzipan character. A second sniff reveals hints of tropical fruit—nothing sharply defined, yet rich and inviting. It’s the kind of wine you’ll enjoy revisiting, as few Rosés offer this level of intrigue and complexity. I appreciate that, especially in a category often associated with simplicity and instant gratification.
This Rosé promises to become even more captivating with time—a rarity these days. The palate is soft and generous, like sinking into a plush sofa you never want to leave. Arguably one of Australia’s finest pink wines, it’s both complex and delicious upon release. And should you come across a bottle after a few years, expect it to impress just as much—an outstanding wine in every sense, regardless of its color.
