With a traditional cool climate season, the Pyrenees vines produced a low yield of high quality fruit. These conditions allowed the fruit to ripen gradually, producing rich flavours while retaining its natural acid.
The grapes were picked early in the morning and placed in the cool room for 24 hours at 5 degrees. While in the cool room, the fruit was hand plunged in the traditional manner and left on skins, allowing for lovely colour and flavours to be extracted before being transferred to the winepress. The bright pink juice was settled, racked and allowed to warm for natural fermentation to occur. Fermentation was undertaken at a lower temperature to retain fruit, and snap chilled to halt the ferment with a slight natural sweetness.
Pair with light pasta dishes such as pasta primavera and soft cheeses.

Halliday Wine Companion
"Sangiovese and grenache combine to give a pleasing mix of freshness, palate texture and sweet fruit flavours. The wine is clean, bright and inviting, packed with juicy strawberry, watermelon, and pink candy flavours. A touch of natural sweetness
contributes to the weight, softness and breadth." – Toni
