Oldfield Reserve Rosé 2017

- 91 points -

This is made with Cabernet Franc. The grapes were harvested by machine at 4 a.m. when the fruit was cool; and remained in the picking bins for about 12 hours to pick up colour. Then the grapes were pressed gently and fermented with selected yeast. The hue is somewhat pale. The wine begins with aromas of herbs and strawberry, leading to flavours of watermelon. The finish is crisp and dry.
