Josh Cooper Rose 2024

Inspired by the great, age-worthy and serious rosé wines of the south of France (Clos Cibonne, Chateau Simon and Tempier), our interpretation is barrel fermented in large old French oak, then lees aged for 11 months, creating a wine of depth, complexity and character.

A blend of Merlot, Shiraz, Pinot Noir, Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Orangey salmon in colour, it offers exuberant aromatics of raspberry, cranberry, green almond and peppery spice and a subtle stoney complexity. The palate is crisp, yet concentrated, full of bright, spicy red berry fruit, creamy, lees derived complexity and feathery tannins adding complexity and savouriness.

A wonderful food wine, and one that will also gain in complexity in the medium term. - Josh Cooper
