Mystic Spring Rose 2023
COLOUR
Blush-like in colour with a lovely very delicate salmon pink
NOSE
Delicate and pristine with lifted aromas of watermelons and strawberries.
PALATE
Lively and elegantly flavoursome with crisp acidity. The mid-palate is fresh and juicy with fruit sweetness, a touch of spritz, and a clean refreshing lingering finish.
WINEMAKING
This wine is sourced from Penrose Farm, a vineyard southeast of Witchcliffe. Once optimum flavour had been reached in the vineyard the fruit was picked in the cool of the morning, gently destemmed and immediately pressed to minimize colour extraction. Following settling for three days the clear juices were racked and inoculated with Zymaflore X16, a cultured dried yeast and fermented gently at 13-14 C for two weeks. Once dry the wine was racked off gross lees and left on light fluffy lees before being fined, stabilised, filtered, and bottled.
FOOD PAIRING
Lemon herb Mediterranean chicken salad.
