Whistler Dry As A Bone Rose 2024 11.5% 750ml

Tasting Notes

Appearance
Very pale pastel pink, almost copper in colour.

Aroma
Aromas of red apple, fresh raspberries, cherries and strawberry yoghurt.

Palate
Palate is dry, but has great fruit weight and great legnth. There is some complexity on the palate from the lees stirring.

Winemakers comments
Showcasing a sun, which provides the warm temperatures to ripen our grapes, this is the perfect drink for warm weather. The cactus reminds us that our grapes are grown on teh driest state, on the driest continent on earth and this Provence styled rosé is 'dry as a bone'.

Vinification
The Juice was gently pressed off the skins within3.5 hours of harvest to preserve the vibrant, pale color of the rosé. Fermentation took place in stainless steel to maintain the wine's fresh, crisp profile, while regular lees stirring imparted a creamy texture. This process also helped soften the acidity, resulting in a beautifully rounded mouthful.
