Thomas Hordern Wiley Rooster Hunter Rosé 2016
About the wine
Zesty and refreshing!
- Thomas's highly anticipated Rosé and his first cab off the rank for the fantastic 2016 vintage has landed! Get ready to load up your glass with beautiful juice direct from the banks of the Goulburn River.
- The wine is made from 100% single vineyard Merlot grapes, picked early to capture the fruit's natural vibrancy and acidity. Thomas left the wine on skins for just the right number of hours to lock in it's perfectly pink colour. This compliments the aromas of berries and Turkish delight perfectly!
- The palate has an array of layers, not sweet but rather a balanced, dry and fruit driven experience that will delight anyone lucky enough to nab a glass! In short, it's a cracking return on investment for Angels - a young, fresh and crisp Rosé that will be perfect with any meal, any time.
