About This Wine
93 POINTS - The Real Review Aaron Brasher
"There's a fabulous mousse and bead when poured. Complex aromas of bruised strawberry, cherry, white flowers and stone fruit. Rich, creamy and mouth-filling in flavour, there's a core of red fruits and just-ripe nectarine. Textured, dry and persistent on the finish."
Aroma
Hints of cherry and rose blossom on the nose.
Vinification
Multi-Vintage is a story of complexity in our base wines. Across vintages we use four different techniques to hold reserve wines, giving our winemakers more creative freedom, resulting in more expressive wines. Our reserve wine approach preserves freshness and character and provides our winemaking team with the ultimate conditions to deliver our house style. Our Multi-Vintage philosophy is an expression of place, house style and consistency. Blending the best vintages and wine making techniques to build complexity and harmony for outstanding, consistent cuvees each year.
Palate
On the palate it exhibits a rich and concentrated mouth feel with texture and vibrancy of fruit extended by the natural acidity. This Rosé is layered and creamy as well as delivering lovely red forest fruits and a crunchy persistent acidity which drives the wine through to a balanced and long finish.

Tasmanian Wine
The Tasmanian wine region is a cool climate region, the most southerly of all wine regions in Australia. Due to the lower temperatures, the area grows primarily Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc, with smaller plantings of Riesling, Pinot Gris and Cabernet Sauvignon.
“Having been to many wine tastings over the years, I can definitely say from a personal standpoint that Tasmanian Chardonnay and Pinot noir are always ones I look forward to trying if they are on the menu. They are almost always high calibre wines that can easily compete against what the rest of the world has to offer in these varietals.” Jason C. – World Wine.
While Tasmania makes great still wines, the exceptional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir also make for excellent sparkling wines.
More recent vintages since 2005 have been positively impacted by the effects of global warming. With slightly higher temperatures the grapes are ensured to ripen fully and produce more vibrant wine.
