Collector Shoreline Sangiovese Rose 2021
The Wine
Principally made from Sangiovese grown at Tumblong (Gundagai) (ironstone-rich red loam) and Murrumbateman (red loam over shale) with the addition of a small amount of Mammolo, which is a lightly coloured, fragrant, musk-like grape that accompanies Sangiovese. the grapes were hand-harvested in the cool of the morning then whole-bunch pressed, yielding just the barest pink colour in the juice. A moderately cool fermentation was undertaken before preparation for bottling The wine is fresh on the nose with aromas of mandarin, cherry, rose-water and spice. The palate is dry, with moreish mid-palate texture and mouth-watering acidity. Great for seasonal drinking with antipasti!
