"An astute meld of carignan, sangiovese and shiraz, the latter a back burner to carignan’s mettle and sangjovese’s frisk, intrinsic to quality. A wild barrel-fermented sneer at the ersatz Côte d’Azur endeavours of many. This is gently oxidative, chewy and full, destined for the table. Real wine-country allusions to Tavel. Deep coral hue. Maraschino cherry, bergamot and prosciutto. Charcuterie or yakitori. Your choice" Ned Goodwine, Halliday Companion

The style is bone dry but full of texture. Aromas of red cherry, sweet herbs and orange blossom, with tangerine, wild strawberry and spiced citrus on the palate.

Our BONAIRE ROSÉ is made from Carignan, Sangiovese and Shiraz that we pick and press together. Approximately half is fermented in seasoned oak, ambient temp, wild ferment on full solids. The other portion is fermented in steel on light lees and at a cooler temp. Post-ferment the two portions are blended back together and mature in seasoned oak on light lees for 6 months prior to bottling.
