Rose

Moderate salmon pink in colour with a hint of crimson and a lively and persistent fine bead. The 2006 Rosé displays enticing aromas of lifted fresh red berry fruits complemented by oyster, sautéed mushroom and lanolin. On the palate, an initial rush of fresh strawberries and cream dominate followed by complex secondary characters of toast, fresh mushroom and lychee. A low dosage style with structural elegance built around fine tannins and a national acid backbone which is seamless and persistent. A sophisticated Rosé of alluring complexity and vibrant character, the third vintage release of this label from a vintage proving to be one of the strongest of the decade.
