2021 GLEN GARVALD ROSE, AUSTRALIA, 750ML BOTTLES

OFFERED BY THE CASE OF (6 x 750ml BOTTLES)

RRP: $210 PER CASE, $35 PER BOTTLE

Sourced predominantly from our 2015 Estate plantings of Rhône grape
varieties, all fruit was hand-picked, hand-sorted then destemmed or
crushed. Juice for this wine was drawn as a saignée (juice run-off)
portion from each of the component varieties. Juice was racked to old
puncheons for natural fermentation prior to blending for maturation on
lees in a concrete vat.

Winemaker’s notes:
This wine takes its varietal and stylistic cues from the intensely dry and
savoury styles of France’s southern Rhône Valley where Grenache Noir is
the major variety cultivated and utilized in rosé and red wine production.
The 2021 vintage Glen Garvald Rosé represents our follow-up foray into
tapping into the potential of Grenache and its sun-loving Mediterranean
stablemates as stand-alone varieties and malleable blends presenting us
options as possible future strengths and mainstays of the Yarra Valley.
Featuring beguiling aromas of macerated strawberries, red cherries,
mandarin zest, ginger, musk, maquis and granite, the palate follows with
lively flavours of strawberries and cream, blood orange, rhubarb, alfalfa,
tahini and fennel seed. The colour is vibrant suggesting impact and
dryness, the aroma bold and enticing, the palate draws long, juicy and
textural indicating a very promising long game for this style and blend in
our Valley. This wine is suitable for vegans.
