Wine Description
The Rosenvale ESTATE GROWN range of wines are selected parcels across the 4 Vineyards on a total of 250 acres of our Family owned estates. In 2018 we barrel selected fruit from 2 of our family vineyards. The Vine Vale Sands vineyard (70%) which is grown on heavy white sandy loam over brown and red clay. The vines are trained to the Rosback system with lift wires and cane pruned.
The Rosenzweig vineyard (30%) which is grown on sandy brown loam over red clay and a deep limestone mix. The vines are trained to the Roseback system with lift wires and cane pruned. This year mother nature loved the cane pruning and yields were spot on.
Accolades
95 Points - Wine Orbit
"It's delectably expressed, showing black/blueberry, violet, cocoa and spicy oak notes, leading to a concentrated palate that's plush and opulent. The wine offers richness as well as harmony and structure, finishing impressively long and silky. At its best: now to 2035. "
