2021 Fleet Syrah Rosé South Gippsland

Savoury and subtly spiced summer wine

This thirst-quenchingly dry rosé from Fleet is summer in a glass. Bright and floral with a salivating tail of acidity. It’s hard to believe how quickly a glass evaporates! 

‘Dusty pale pink colour, aromas of fresh strawberry, red currants, hint of herbal spice.  Palate is fine and savoury, a little textural, with a dry crisp finish.’
