Olivers Taranga Chica Mencia Rosé 2025 6pack 11.5% 750ml

TASTING NOTES

APPEARANCE

Pale salmon pink.

AROMA

Watermelon wedges with a hint of lime, spring flower blossom, touch of spice and fairy floss.

PALATE

Plenty of watermelon following through the palate, dried strawberries, spicy margarita. Plenty of texture and generous fruit weight while maintaining a savoury element and lightness on the palate. So refreshing and delicious as an aperitif, or anytime!

WINEMAKERS COMMENTS

Mencia is a native variety of Spain, in particular the Bierzo region in the northwest of the country. Oliver’s Taranga are the first to plant it in Australia. We decided to get our (mostly female) cellar door team on board to learn about the winemaking process – and as such the ‘Chica’ was born! Our winemaker Corrina uses a fermentation technique called ‘Carbonic Maceration’, which results in a lovely aroma & texture on the wine.

RANGE NOTES

With 300 acres of premium grapevines on the Taranga property, the Oliver family has over 50 blocks representing different grape varieties, clones, soil types & vine ages. Each vintage, different varieties & blocks will show their strength and from this the ‘SMALL BATCH’ range was born. These wines have been handcrafted to speak of both the variety and the vintage in which they have been produced.
