about the harvest: It is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz and Merlot. The red grapes were specifically picked for rosé.

in the cellar : On arriving at the cellar they were crushed, de-stemmed and left to soak overnight before being pressed. This extracted the wonderful red-pink colour of the wine. The juice was fermented with a white wine yeast in stainless steel at 13°C resulting in fresh, racy red and black berry fruit characters developing along with hints of mint and cloves.
