Details
This Sicilian rosé, made from 100% Nerello Mascalese, is fresh, vibrant, and effortlessly elegant. Bursting with wild strawberries and juicy red berries, it’s bright on the palate with a refined, floral edge that keeps things crisp and clean. Vegan-friendly and seriously refreshing - a winning rosé!
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 of the wine is actually from pigments 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 you will 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: Despite it's pink hue, rosé is a great way to appreciate some of the things we love most about the red grape types that make it. For example, Pinot Noir as a red or rosé usually has a lot of strawberry character, whereas Shiraz red and rosé shows red plum and pepper in its pink glass! Can you recognise something you like from your favourite red grape in its pink version?

Pairing guide
This Nerello Mascalese rosé is made for sunny plates and easygoing meals. Pair it with crispy fish tacos and a zingy lime slaw, grilled peach and burrata salad, or a herby couscous bowl with roasted veg and harissa yoghurt. It’s also lush with seared tuna, lemony chicken skewers, or a garlicky prawn linguine. Want snack vibes? Try rosemary crisps, marinated olives, or a slice of focaccia with whipped feta. Light, fresh, and full of flavour - this rosé is all about that laid-back, sun-soaked energy.

Wine region

Sicily, Italy
Sicily is a productive island located in the Mediterranean Sea, off the southern coast of Italy.
The island has a varied landscape, with low coastal plains to hills and even active volcanic mountains. The climate is Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and mild winters. Disease pressure is low thanks to drying coastal breezes making the region ideal for organic farming practices. The soils are volcanic, sandy, and clay.
Sicily can be divided into three wine regions, including the volcanic Etna DOC on the eastern side of the island, known for its red wines made from the Nerello Mascalese grape. The Marsala DOC on the island's western side is known for its fortified wines. The remaining Southeast of the Island produces a range of wines, notably Frappato and Nero d’Avola.
