Shadowfax Wines Minnow Rosé 2022 (6 Bottles) Werribee

$200.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Squishy strawberry, nutty, toffee apple, a bit of spice. Slippery style, soft acidity, good amount of flavour, slight blood orange tang, almost a thick peel marmalade character, but not really sweet as such, though it is what you might call a comely rosé. A little pith and pepper on the finish, and plenty of interest throughout.
91 points. Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

One of our most popular wines, the Minnow Rosé 2020 has a generous mouth filling palate with a rich peaches and cream that flows on and on. This 2020 release is a dangerously drinkable wine best enjoyed chilled with friends on a warm day.

Shadowfax Minnow Rosé is A blend of Shiraz, Mataro, Grenache, Carignan, Mondeuse, Cinsault, Pinot Noir dry-grown Werribee Minnow vineyard. The Pinot Noir and Cinsault had superb aromatics, with the Mourvèdre and Syrah giving lovely texture and depth. The Grenache also an extra spice element to the wine.

A generous mouth filling palate shows rich peaches and cream that flows on and on. The high pH 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 and the fine acidity keeps the palate fresh and crunchy. The 2020 Minnow Rose is a dangerously drinkable wine best enjoyed chilled with friends on a warm day.

Description

“At Shadowfax we want our vineyards to express their own unique characters and the wine grown there to talk to the one who’s drinking it, by telling its own story. The grapes grown must reflect the site, thus each vineyard site must be grown depending on its own requests. If you look, listen and taste (both grape, vine and soil) the vineyard will tell you its needs and wants.

Whether that be some foliage manipulation, fruit thinning or it may be screaming out for a little drink, we will act. We are not afraid of new ideas, experimentation, trials and tribulation, whilst having a ball doing so. We want the vineyard to do the talking using the wine glass as its stage.”

Alister Timms – Vineyard Manager
