Wine Description
This unique Provence inspired Rosé is dry, fresh & crisp with exceptional depth of flavour and vibrant acidity.
The fruit for DOWIE DOOLE Rosé is sourced from our Doole vineyard. This vineyard is only 4kms from the ocean, creating a Mediterranean climate, ideally suited to growing wine grapes for this Provence style Rosé.
1965 planted old vine Grenache is combined with Vermentino. These varieties complement each other; Grenache offers lifted aromatics and fruit, the Vermentino adding texture and acidity.
Grenache fruit shines on the nose with strawberries and fairy floss characteristics; the Vermentino's natural acidity adds texture and length.
