Apogee Deluxe Vintage Rose 2020
Light salmon pink with fine mousse and a suitable foamy collar when poured. Distinctively secondary aromas are part of Apogee style, induced by our oxidative juice handling. Fragrant raspberry and strawberry compote with some yeasty components like a red berry tart. There is also the sea-breeze component:, a salty, minerally touch. Mid-weight palate but surprising flavour richness on the mid-palate due to the high pinot noir content from this special part of the vineyard. Chardonnay freshens the finish with its citrus tang.
Region: Pipers River, Tasmania
