Tasting Notes
Aroma
Nori, ginger and cumquat notes. Hints of complexing lees derived
quarry dust and white pepper notes.
Appearance
Pale penny copper, pure clarity.
Palate
A generous mouth filling palate shows rich peaches and cream
that flows on and on. The grenache gives the wine lovely
mouth-coating texture and warmth. The palate is long and flowing
with oodles of flavour. The fine lacey tannins frame the wine, whilst
fine acidity keeps the palate fresh and crunchy. The 2025 Minnow
Rose is a dangerously drinkable wine best enjoyed chilled with
friends on a warm day.
Vinification
Hand harvested fruit was immediately gently whole bunch pressed
to give minimal colour and tannin extraction. Wild fermentation
occurred in older French barrels. The wine rested on lees to relax
and unwind for 10 months prior to assemblage and bottling in
February 2026.
Vintage Notes
This fruit was carefully grown at our winery vineyard in Werribee. A
dry and warm spring set moderate crops. The trend continued into
summer allowing grapes to ripen slowly with lots of concentration.
The Grenache and Cinsault had superb aromatics, with the Mataro,
Carignan and Syrah giving lovely texture and depth. The grapes
were hand harvested in the cool of the morning at optimum
flavour ripeness.
Food Matching
Crumbed olives with pork and fennel stuffing, deep fried white bait,
tomato carpaccio and burrata salad.
