in the vineyard : Grapes were sourced from vineyards grown in a cross-section of regions and specifically selected for their ability to deliver top quality grapes year on year. In order to get the perfect colour for the Rosé the grapes were all hand-harvested, thus minimising any potential colour extraction.

about the harvest: A healthy harvest was spread over a couple of weeks, from mid-February to the latter part of March

in the cellar : After crushing, the juice was drained immediately but with some vineyard portions receiving up to two hours of skin contact to ensure that the colour remained the precise salmon-pink hue desired and the palate retained the freshness of summer fruit. Wines were fermented cold at around 14°C, ensuring that they retained a delicate and fresh bouquet.
