    2024 Spinifex Rosé

    • $29.00
    • $32.00

    Spinifex’s provençal-styled rosé is among the best this country offers, and 2024 is another stellar release. This year, the blend comprises Grenache (62%) and Mataro (38%) sourced from four dry-grown sites in Angaston, Ebenezer, Vine Vale and the southern end of the Bethany foothills. Soils vary across the sites from gravelly sand to red clay, and vine age ranges from 25 to 90 years. The (predominantly) bush vines are dry-grown. 

    Each batch spent two to six hours on skins before being pressed to tank for fermentation. A small portion of the wine went through malolactic conversion, and maturation took place on lees in tank for six months. The resulting wine offers the kind of energy and snappy, crunchy lines that were once the exclusive domaine of the finest Provence rosés.

    Review:

    “Another delicious rosé from the fine folks at Spinifex; 37% grenache, 36% mataro and 27% cinsault. Light salmon pink with aromas of raspberry, redcurrant, watermelon and ruby red grapefruit. Hints of freshly cut fennel, blood orange, soft spice, almond paste, wildflowers and stone. Just a slide of phenolic texture before the wine sails off, focused and briny, with a wash of lightly spiced red fruits and stone. Savoury and moreish.”
