Sophisticated stuff here, not always the case with Rose.

With hallmark bright berry flavours, balance, energy, depth and a dry finish, this is a serious Rosé which is seriously delicious.
"Terra Sancta is a leader in the art of creating beautiful Rosé.

With hallmark bright berry flavours, balance, energy, depth and a dry finish, this is a serious Rosé which is seriously delicious.
A gorgeous pale salmon hue, its fragrance is lifted and beguiling with hibiscus and wild red berries. A wine of great energy, it is complex and concentrated on the palate with apricot kernel, mandarin pith and provencal herbs. With distinctive minerality, it possesses lovely mouthfeel and a touch of tannin from skin contact and barrel fermentation. A seamless Rosé of great balance and poise, it has outstanding persistence." Winery
