Details
For those who have tangled themselves over reading about foxes in socks and socks in boxes will be glad to know that this fox will not twist the tongue but provide it with some much needed relief. We have bright strawberries that aren’t wearing any socks and a touch of creaminess and crushed herbs that have no idea what a knox is.
Origin: The spiritual home of rosé is Provence, in Southern France. Mainly Grown In: Rosé is found all over the world these days, but coastal regions are especially well suited to the growing of red grapes for rosé. Key Facts: Rosé is predominantly made from red grape varieties. The colour in wine comes from the pigment found in the skins of the grapes, so even red grapes have clear-coloured juice. The colour is then ‘bled’ out of the skins by infusing the skins into the juice. So for rosé, the wine simply spends far less time hanging out with the skins! Rarely will you find a rosé that is a combo of white and red grapes – they’re not ‘less good’, just less common. Rosé is super versatile – it suits any occasion. Best to always have a bottle in the fridge, just in case, you know… Wednesday happens or something. Fun Fact: Rosé is probably the most versatile and food-friendly style of wine in the world, able to be paired with a range of dishes!

Pairing guide
This stunning Victoria rosé is a real treat for the senses - a real crowd-pleaser of a pink wine that’s ideal for light lunches, barbecues, picnics and more. We especially enjoyed it with Asian-style beef or pork salads, but it’s equally good with salmon dishes, grilled sausages and homemade burgers, and with anything featuring the biggest prawns you can get your hands on. Tomato-based pasta sauces or milder curries will also work well, and it’s excellent with creamy chicken casseroles, charcuterie and salty cheeses.
