Details
This pale pink rosé is giving watermelon, red cherry and ripe raspberry, with a gentle mineral edge and a floral lift of cherry blossom and jasmine. It's dry, fresh and fruit-forward, with bright acidity and a light body. Hints of white peach on the finish make this a fab pink made for sunny sipping.

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 liquid. 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: 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 rosé is all about light, sunny flavours and works beautifully with fresh, summery dishes. Think tomato and peach salads with good olive oil, grilled prawns, or a spread of mezze-style plates to share. For a vegan pairing, try a watermelon, cucumber and olive salad with fresh mint, lemon zest and a drizzle of olive oil. The sweetness of the watermelon mirrors the wine’s ripe red fruit, while the citrus and herbs highlight its bright acidity and floral notes. It’s an effortless match that feels refreshing, balanced and perfect for warm afternoons.

Wine region
Puglia, Italy
Puglia is a wine region in the "heel" of Italy that is known for its red, white, and rosé wines. The full-bodied red wines are often made with Negroamaro and Primitivo grapes, while the whites are usually made with Verdeca and Fiano grapes. Puglia has a hot, sunny climate which helps the grapes ripen fully and gives the wines a rich flavour. The region is also home to some unique grape varieties, like Nero di Troia and Bombino Nero. So, if you're a fan of Italian wine, definitely give Puglia a try! Historically Puglia has been better known for its quantity of wine over its quality. But thanks to a number of quality-focused producers, the region is turning that narrative around.
