Amato Vino Nebbiolo Rosato 2019 Western Australia Margaret River
Amato Vino Nebbiolo Rosato 2019 Western Australia Margaret RiverAmato Vino Nebbiolo Rosato 2019 is light in colour and cloudy by design. Think smoky tangerine spice and florals, followed by a long savoury palate of fleshy citrus and green herbs. A sweet sherbet lick kicks in before the long dry finish, all held together with racy acidity.

Fighting Gully Road Rose 2019-Victoria Beechworth
Fighting Gully Road Rose 2019-Victoria BeechworthFighting Gully Road Rose 2019. Light salmon-pink colour, with freshness of hue. The bouquet is complex and meaty, smoked smallgoods, charcuterie-like, and at quite a remove from the fresh, grapy style of Aussie rosé. It’s soft and round, easygoing and gentle, with moderate length and a clean finish. Lovely balance and great drinkability. Excellent Aussie rosé

La Petit Mort Rose 2017 Queensland Granite Belt
La Petit Mort Rose 2017 Queensland Granite BeltThe 2017 La Petite Mort Rosé is made from a process called the saignee method, meaning to “bleed”. The juice is only left on skins for a very short period, prior to fermentation, extracting plenty of flavour, but little colour. And by golly, there is so much flavour here, yet the palate is completely dry, elegant and ethereal. Bursting with the sweetest red fruits, spice, cream and a savouriness that is a lovely foil to the sweet fruit. We talk of Rose as a picnic wine, and so it is, but this one has the character and personality to carry itself with more serious food also. One that will go a few years too.
Levantine Hill Coldstream Guard Rose 2018 Victoria Yarra Valley
Levantine Hill Coldstream Guard Rose 2018 Victoria Yarra ValleyIt’s a beauty! Bone dry and loaded with red berry fruits, rhubarb, textural appeal, a lick of spice, and a moreish length begging for you to come back. Superbly balanced and nicely weighted.
It’s a blend of Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Cabernet. The Pinot was wild fermented in ten year old French foudre, the Shiraz was bled off and also wild fermented in smaller old French oak barrels whilst the Cabernet saw 100% stainless steel. The end result is smashing. No wait, it’s more than that. It’s smashable!
The media release suggests long, languid lunches – oh yeah! Yes please!
Massena Dadds Block Rose 2017 South Australia Barossa Valley
Massena Dadds Block Rose 2017 South Australia Barossa ValleyMassena Dadds Block Rose 2017(70% Primitivo, 30% Mataro) ‘Our Primitivo and Mataro are hand harvested and pressed as whole clusters to extract only the freshest juice. Transferred into neutral oak barrels, the juice is left to spontaneously ferment over several weeks. The natural convection currents during ferment ensure the lees are rolled continuously through the wine, giving texture and weight to the palate.’
