Crawford River Vineyard Series Rose 2023

Producer Notes - "The fruit for this wine is predominantly Pinot Gris which was purchased from the Cobboboonee Vineyard in Heywood. The remainder of the blend is made up of Semillon. The Pinot Gris was left on skins overnight, before gentle, cremant cycle pressing. The juice was fermented naturally in a combination of stainless steel and old oak. The Semillon portion was whole bunch pressed, settled in tank, then naturally fermented in old oak. Both wines were taken off gross lees shortly after fermentation and spent around 6 weeks on fine lees only. Screwcap. Bottled September 2023.

Delicately perfumed with apple blossom and macerated strawberries. A soft, creamy mid palate has fresh cherry and a fine, mineral backbone. Generous textural integrity throughout the palate lends length, with fresh acidity making for delicious drinking."
