Three Choirs Vineyards Estate Reserve Rosé 2019

A crisp, fresh, refreshing rosé with subtle strawberry and raspberry aromas. On the palate, the summer berry fruit is well balanced with zesty acidity to deliver a fine, complex, off-dry Rose wine, with classic English summer fruit and hints of summer hedgerow. The Three Choirs Vineyard is south facing on sandy loam soil with a GDC trellis system with 800 vines per acre or 2000 per hectare. Most vines are 10-20 years old, all grapes are hand-picked. The 2017 harvest produced an above-average crop with good ripeness levels and most importantly a good level of crisp acidity. The wine required minimum intervention in the winery and produced a wine of typical varietal character.
