This Rose is oh-so-pretty in pink! Iridescent salmon pink in the glass it is all strawberries and cream with hints of tantalising raspberry & watermelon. Made from Shiraz fruit, the first taste is grippy and dry, with lovely red fruit flavours. Perfect with seafood or a spicy Asian feast.
Tasting Notes for Angove Organic Rose from the Winery
Angove Organic Rosé is made from organically certified Shiraz grapes grown in our own Nanya Vineyard, in the Riverland region of South Australia. Delicate pink with strawberry, blueberry and crunchy watermelon aromas with a hint of apple. The palate is crisp and clean with abundant strawberry and red berry characters.
Winemaking
Shiraz grapes were harvested in the cool of dawn in early February when the berries still had reasonable acidity but also good sugar and flavour ripeness, they were lightly crushed directly to the press and then drained and pressed to ensure minimal tannin and colour in the final juice. Fermentation occurred under cool, temperature controlled conditions in stainless steel with a specially selected yeast to ensure maximum retention of flavours and aromas. During blending a ‘splash’ of Sauvignon Blanc was added to lift the palate to another dimension.
Vineyard
Angove Organic Rosé is made from organically certified Shiraz grapes grown in our own Nanya Vineyard, near Paringa, South Australia, with a splash of Sauvignon Blanc.
Coming off a bumper crop in 2021, we knew that yields from 2022 were going to be down. This was exacerbated by a cool spring, and hailstorms in November. Despite this, the mild summer temperatures, abundant sunshine and lack of rainfall created a perfect harvest season – steady ripening across whites and reds aided fruit intensity and flavour development, while cool nights meant acids remained intact. While yields are down, quality is exceptional, resulting in fantastic wines.

“Pretty in pink, this cheeky Rosé is made from Shiraz fruit. Of the Organic new releases received, this would be my top pick. Watermelon juice in appearance, it’s an easy drop to savour. Not overly complex, there’s a curious faint whiff of apricot before mandarin peel and red berry fruits swoop. Soft with fine pepper spice, a little texture makes a play for your interest levels late adding some tension across the palate. Red apple acid crunch for the win.”
