This bright, lively rosé was created to help raise awareness of breast cancer and to offer support to the thousands of Australian families affected by this disease every year. It’s a delicious drop with scents of roses, red berries and subtle earthiness that introduce a dry, savoury-edged palate full of red fruits, a gentle mouth-feel and a long, floral finish. With a portion of all sales going to the Breast Cancer Network of Australia, you can feel good about drinking this worthy drop. Goes well with an array of modern Australian fare, and particularly well with grilled salmon.

Pale salmon colour; this has more interest than most roses with its mix of ripe raspberry and more savoury aromas, the palate with good texture and balance, the finish juicy and fresh.
