Cape Mentelle Rose
Cape Mentelle Rosé is a fresh, vibrant expression of the traditional dry rosé style. Our 2017 vintage Rosé is a blend of shiraz, grenache, tempranillo and sangiovese. A combination of direct pressing and saignée methods deliver delicate, fresh aromas and colour. Framed by generous fruit and a refreshing acidity, it makes for a perfect summer beverage to be shared with friends

VINEYARD :
The lion share of the fruit came from the cooler southern half of the region, including our Chapman Brook Vineyard along with our other estate and selected contract vineyards. Various canopy management methods are used, with the objective being to maximise fruit fl avour development. The typical soils of these vineyards are geologically ancient, free draining sandy loams with a high percentage of lateritic gravel.
WINEMAKING :
On the nose, it is full of melon rind, fresh strawberries and watermelon intertwined with white peaches. A pronounced minerality is driven by accents of wet sharpening stone and lifted white blossoms. The palate is fresh and concentrated with a crisp attack, yet with a complex textural edge that defines the Cape Mentelle style. There is a great depth of flavours, with notes reminiscent of rose petals, lilac, red currants, ripe Meyer lemon, jasmine and cassis tea, finishing with a touch of whipped cream and pink peppercorn.This wine is a perfect match for a summer grazing board with your best friends, satay chicken with Asian vegetables and red chilies or fresh local sashimi.
