"Elegant and fabulously expressed, the bouquet shows Gala apple, lemon peel and white floral aromas with a hint of pomegranate.

"There’s no mistaking the deliciousness in the bouquet with scents of mineral and light red berry fruits, a saline quality and gentle perfume of flowers and fruit spice. A tropical note and fine lees ageing adds breadth and intrigue. Pure, ripe, refreshing and salivating on the palate, what’s not to like! Flavours of cherry and light red berry flesh, lees and acidity layer in mouthfeel and pizzaz to the finish. Great drinking from day of purchase through 2027. To sum this wine up in just one word - ‘Yum’" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Oct 2024

"Bright, even, pale peach-pink. The nose is voluminous, with aromas of raspberry, strawberry, pomegranate and flower petals. Medium-light bodied, aromas of raspberry and strawberry intertwined with pomegranate rose and cherry blossom. The fruit is intense with beautiful aromatics, a dusty phenolic texture elevates and lingers to a crisp, thirst-quenching closing" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Oct 2024

Pale Pink in colour, this Mediterranean style rosé is savoury with aromas of rose petals, overlaying nuances of fresh cut watermelon, pink grapefruit, blood orange, botanicals and eucalyptus. The juicy palate exudes crushed red berries, sherbet, and a seasoning of Pink Himalayan Salt. This elegant rosé is perfectly pronounced and enticing with a rounded mouthfeel and relaxed acdity delivering a mouthwatering, generous, and dry finish.

Isle of Beauty is the evocative name given to the French island of Corsica, located in the Mediterranean Sea. This is where winemaker David Clouston learnt his craft and became passionate about rosé.

Grapes were harvested in the early morning from vineyards in the Southern Valleys. A balanced growing season led to healthy vines and perfect ripening conditions. A cool February resulted in this years wines having expressive aromatics, great energy, and fresh lively acidity with a tight structure on the palate.

Treated as a white wine in the cellar, this rosé was pressed off skins early and fermented cold in stainless steel to accentuate fruit purity. The wine was then aged on light yeast lees for two months to gain complexity and increase mouthfeel.
