2020 Auld Family Wilberforce SA Grenache Rosé - just arrived

Nick Bulleid MW's Tasting Note

Background

The grapes for this fragrant rosé came from the Riverland, Barossa and Padthaway. The grapes were picked predominantly on 28th February 2020, crushed, then allowed five hours skin contact at 17°C before pressing. The juice fermented cool, to preserve aromas and freshness.

Colour
Pale salmon.

Nose
Fresh and fragrant showing red fruits with a touch of raspberry.

Structure / Palate
Lively and soft, with plenty of red fruit flavour. Finishes dry,with balanced acidity.

Grenache has fragrant aromatics and mild tannins making it an ideal grape for rosé, as in the south of France. This example is delicious with light summer foods and by itself. Enjoy it before winter threatens.
