Mencía Rosé 2023

Winemaker notes:
Visually bright, it glistens in the glass like pink gemstone. Nose of candy-floss, fresh hops and mint leaps out. Flavours of white peach, strawberries and cream, finish with a thirst-quenching quinine character. The mixed flavours remind us of an Eton Mess – like summer in a glass. Enjoy while fresh and young or within two years.

Hand-made at CRFT winery, Carey Gully. 100% Organically grown and made (uncertified). Harvested 20th March 2023. Short cold-soak then pressed and wild fermented cool and slow in stainless steel. Occasional lees stirring for texture and mouthfeel. Partial wild malo-lactic fermentation. Unoaked. Vegan friendly.

The vineyard is located on the southern fringe of the Barossa Valley wine region, just a couple kilometres from the boundary of the Adelaide Hills wine region. The Wild South Vineyard has fully converted to organic and regenerative farming practices from 2021 with full Organic Certification to follow. Formerly the ‘Rohrlach Vineyard’ and newly named the ‘Wild South Vineyard’, our Mencía is grown by Matthew Rohrlach in Williamstown.
