This is an elegant, refreshing and soft-textured Rosé with delightfully delicate redcurrant flavours. Serve as an aperitif and with canapés.

Very pale pink blend of
merlot (principally) and
syrah, fermented to full
dryness in old French
oak barrels. 'Serious'
style, mouthfilling, with
peachy, spicy flavours,
hints of strawberry
and apricot, and good
complexity. Best
drinking mid-2015+.
