About the Wine
This rosé exudes serious aperitif energy - pale pink with zesty red berries and a smooth, creamy finish - it conjures up warm days and beach holidays.
Winemaking
This is 100% Syrah coming from Justin and Lisa’s 35-year-old own-rooted vines grown in the red volcanic basalt soils in Leongatha, South Gippsland. Barrel-fermented in seasoned barriques to build texture.
The wine shows excellent weight and concentration, with a fine line of acidity keeping everything in its right place. Partial malolactic fermentation builds texture and shape to complement its salivating line. A vibrant Rosé that is kept simple to reveal proper fruit quality.
Tasting Note
In the glass, it shows a dusty pale pink hue. Aromas of wild strawberry, red currant and salted pink grapefruit are lifted by a faint herbal spice. The palate is savoury and finely textural, offering both ease and refreshment with layers of fruit and a slatey grip that carries through to the crisp, dry finish. Light and breezy yet quietly complex, this is rosé with character.
About Fleet Wines
