Zonzo Estate, Yarra Valley, Victoria.
Led by winemaker Caroline Mooney, Zonzo vintages are made in small batches by hand. Every season is different, so their wines are too. Zonzo make wine how it’s always been done — picked from the vineyard, stomped, shovelled, plunged — all by hand (and foot) in their winery.
Estate Rose 2022
Wanting something to sip on for Sunday?
With notes of plum, rhubarb and spice this is the perfect drink to share at a garden party or to sip between rounds of barefoot bowls. It pairs well with a salad nicoise on a warm day—or have it all by itself!
Tasting Notes
This European style of Rosé has a lovely spicy nose intertwined with plums and rhubarb. Rose perfume and subtle background cardamon aids in this fresh profile. This freshness is supported by barrel and partial malolactic fermentation both of which provides weight and savoury characters. Great length and fresh detailed persistence.
Process
This rosé has been made by blending lightly pressed merlot and shiraz. The fruit was pressed to tank and settle overnight. Three days later settled juice was racked, inoculated with yeast and fermented in old French barrels.
