Description There are still some sunny afternoons left for lovely Rosé sipping … and these full-flavoured drops go so well with Autumn fare too. Start in WA with an aromatic Pinot Noir-based Rosé from Marchand & Burch, then head to South Australia’s beautiful Clare Valley for Claymore’s rocking Whole Lotta Love Sangiovese Rosé, and the Adelaide Hills for Geoff Hardy’s flavour-packed K1 Durif star. There’s a mouthwatering blend from the lovely Krystallo Estate in Victoria’s Goulburn Valley too – this is a treat. Then, take a trip to France for a gorgeous Grenache-based Provence Rosé and the amazing Roc Clairet – a decadent Merlot-based Rosé. These are delicious – enjoy!
Clairet is the original, dark-hued, Bordeaux rosé. Almost red. Here, we 'roc' the boat to give this pink style a new lease of life. And it's truly delicious. Top Merlot grapes, taken off skins early, it's cram full of cherry and cassis appeal.
Early harvested Sangiovese supplied by the winemakers' grower friends is gently pressed for a touch of colour. Light notes of strawberry, lime juice and pink grapefruit on the palate with gentle texture on the finish.
Geoff Hardy made this deliciously mouthwatering single vineyard rosé purely from Durif.
Crafted by highly regarded WA winemaker Nick Bowen and sourced mainly from 20-year-old Pinot Noir plantings at Mt Barker in Great Southern, this Rosé drips with Provence styling.
So delicious solo and versatile with food, this elegant Provence pink is a must all year round. It comes from the Brun family’s estate that’s a century old and prides itself on its old vines. A rosé packed with crisp berry fruit and spice.
Crafted from the plump and juicy Merlot grapes of Victoria's Upper Goulburn region, the 93pt Belitso Rosé reflects winemaker Adrian Santolini's skill in crafting pretty cool-climate wines. Watermelon, tangy raspberry, and savoury spice.
