Barossa Valley Estate
Rosé 2021
“Light, bright, aromatic and always fresh with intense, generous fruit-forward flavours.”
Along the foothills of the Barossa Valley, a tapestry of ancient red friable clay soils combines with a warm and dry climate to create a unique environment for vines to develop fruit that has a vibrancy and depth of flavour like nowhere else on earth. From the very beginning, our viticultural practices nurture the sustainable health of the vine that moderates vine vigour and yield, and produces small berries of intense flavour and distinctive varietal character.
Barossa Valley
Growing Season
The 2021 growing season had plentiful rainfall during early spring which prepared the soils well for the warm season ahead providing for lush and healthy canopies. Cool conditions over flowering moderated yields with late spring and summer bringing dry and warm conditions. Warm days contributed to excellent ripening conditions for intense varietal character development. Harvest followed a cooler period producing small-berried bunches rich in flavour, balanced with fresh acidity, excellent tannin structure and vibrant fruit flavours.
Winemaking
“Our philosophy is to capture the distinctive elegance, finesse and vibrant fruit flavours of the Barossa Valley.”
It starts with picking the grapes at ripeness levels that give the wine a freshness of fruit and natural balance of flavour. Modern winemaking techniques allow us to carefully control fermentation while retaining the delicate fruit characters, producing a crisp elegant and refreshing wine.
