Roebuck Estates Rosé de Noirs 2016 is carefully crafted from the finest handpicked Pinot Noir grapes grown at our Roman Villa vineyard. The fruit destined for this wine is whole-bunch pressed and partially fermented in the finest French oak casks followed by a generous lees ageing of 36 months in bottle. A splash of Pinot Précoce is added prior to release imparting an attractive pale pink hue and ripe red fruit characteristics on this wine. Our sparkling rosé is vibrant and expressive with notes of wild strawberries, white peach and a hint of honeysuckle. It’s the perfect apéritif to be enjoyed with friends and family all year round.

The 2016 growing season took a little time to really get going but by mid-July things had picked up and the sunshine continued almost unabated until harvest. The small but perfectly formed bunches were allowed to bask in a long Indian summer and achieve full ripeness with excellent phenolics – the building blocks for some great wines. By harvest time, the fruit was ripe with perfect acids and we could be incredibly exact on picking dates.

Carefully selected bunches were gently whole bunch pressed and partially fermented in old Burgundian barrels before a minimum of three years lees ageing in bottle. A splash of Pinot Précoce was added as a still red wine at disgorgement giving a pale pink tone and attractive wild berry aromatics to this wine.
