Long regarded as one of Australia's leading Rosé exponents, Sutton Grange's 2022 Fairbank Rosé was named 'Rosé Of The Year' | 97 Points in the 2024 Halliday Wine Companion.
Another complex, poised and all-round delicious Rosé, this opens with lifted aromatics of raspberries, blood orange, red apples and melon. The palate is textured and layered with plenty of strawberry and raspberry notes, bright acidity and a long, dry finish. A seriously good Australian Rosé that is receiving plenty of well-deserved attention.
"97 Points. Rose of the Year. Score awarded by the Halliday tasting panel at the annual Awards judging. Jeni Port writes: A blend of shiraz, cabernet sauvignon and sangiovese. The pressure is on Chris Smales, the new winemaker at Sutton Grange, with his first vintage release, but he delivers in maintaining this popular rosé's class. Attractive tea rose hues. Gentle, lifted aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry and lively spice. Love the smoothness, the inviting spice, the bright red berries and clean acid crunch to taste. And so, so versatile at the table. Screw cap. 13% alc. Drink: 2023 - 2025. $35. Screwcap"- Panel Decision, Halliday Wine Companion 2024.
