Red Knot by Shingleback, Rosé, McLaren Vale, Adelaide Hills, 2018

 

Dry and alluring on the nose: pink petals and dusty chalk. Some peach tea plus strawberry manage to give fruit over the savoury modesty. Crisp, dry and balanced, this has all the things you want from a modern rosé: Clean lines, not overly confected or sweet. Enough grip to be food friendly without forsaking flavour. Bargain.

RRP: $15
Alc: 12%
Rating: 17.5/20
