  1. Fontaleoni Rosato Condorino IGT Toscana 2020
    Fontaleoni Rosato Condorino IGT Toscana 2020

    Fontaleoni is a family estate run by brother and sister team, Matteo and Simona Troiani, with a little help from consultant Paolo Caciorgna. They've succeeded in producing a range that is emblematic of the best of what the region has to offer with particular emphasis on Vernaccia.

    Like all their wines they get the primo treatment in the winery. A blend of 70% Sangiovese and 30% Merlot this presents with a top note of rose-petal, plum, and wild cranberry. Its bright and crunchy mouthfeel gives way to soft red fruits and that sangiovese sour cherry we all know and love. I don't know why we don't see more sangiovese base rose as they seem to get that balance of savoury and sweet so well, especially when they are pink.

  2. Nocturne SR Rose 2022
    Nocturne SR Rose 2022
    This has the Julian Langworthy trademark rose-gold blush and texture. The 88% sangiovese is destemmed and left on lees for three months; the 8% tempranillo is whole-bunch pressed to old oak. The remaining 4% is grenache. This comes together beautifully. Fragrant with florals, red licorice, freshly grated ginger and a tinge of red berries. The palate is perfectly modulated between the super-refreshing acidity and its creamy texture. JANE FAULKNER, Halliday Wine Companion

  3. Schmolzer and Brown Pret a Rose 2022
    Schmolzer and Brown Pret a Rose 2022

    Shiraz and pinot noir from Beechworth is the deal. Ready to roll rose.

    It’s delicious! A gentle feast, but one with lots to put on the plate. Cherry, cranberry, rose hip tea, a strawberry sweetness in a dry, ostensibly savoury style. Length and beautiful, succulent texture, great sense of freshness and lift. Crafted, styled, preened and pretty, this is a moreish and wonderful thing to drink. MIKE BENNIE, The Wine Front

  4. Le Cinciole Rosato 2022
    Le Cinciole Rosato 2022
    Organic/biodynamic. Sangiovese grapes are specially harvested at the right degree of ripeness in order to obtain finesse and balance without excessive alcohol content. The de-stemmed grapes stay briefly in the press for a slight maceration. The must is then vinified “in white” at a controlled temperature. The richness of floral perfumes, delicate fruity hints as well as evident mineral notes, characterize the gustative freshness of our Rosato which, like all the other wines coming from our vineyards, shows elegance and persistence.

  5. Terre Nere Etna Rosato 2022
    Terre Nere Etna Rosato 2022
    The 2022 Rosato Etna is understated and delicate, with dried strawberry and dusty florals forming its bouquet. This shows a pretty inner sweetness up front that gives way to crisp orchard fruits and spice. It finishes a bit dry, yet clean, with a saline-tinge that slowly tapers off. ERIC GUIDO, vinous.com

    A pillowy core of rosehip, spiced cherries and spun sugar leads into a tangy line of acidity with a whisp of sea spray. Finely boned with excellent staying power, it's beautifully textured with a chalky presence. Pockets of detail emerge if you go looking, but the real beauty of this rosato is its poker face delivery which rolls out a thrilling mix of red fruits and minerals at just the right time, keeping you very keen and intent on your next sip. Danger danger, this has a high evaporation point. GABRIELLE POY

  6. Quin Wines Barossa Valley Rose 2022
    Quin Wines Barossa Valley Rose 2022
    Mataro sourced from Aldo's vineyard in the southern Barossa parish of Williamstown. Pale salmon in the glass with notes of redcurrant, raspberry, red cherry and citrus fruits along with hints of white flowers, marzipan, stone, raspberry cream and a whiff of freshly cut fennel. Super-sapid porcelain acidity drives this along nicely, and there's a wee slink of texture to boot, finishing dry, red-fruited and clanging for some food. DAVE BROOKES, James Halliday

    Andrew Quin  and his wife Sky are a dynamic couple behind Quin Wines. Both born and raised in Melbourne they purchased a 7 hectare vineyard in Seppeltfield in the heart of the Barossa Valley with the goal of making exceptional wines. As head winemaker for both Hentley Farm and Ricca Terra, Andrew knows how to make wine, and works closely with the viticulturalists to ensure he always has the best fruit to work with.

  7. Eastern Peake Persuasion Rose 2022
    Eastern Peake Persuasion Rose 2022
    This is from Owen Latta’s family label here with the Eastern Peake range with the fruit for this wine is grown by long term friends Frank & Kerry Walsh, directly over the road on the same soil type as Eastern Peake weathered basalt on grey loam. Frank first established with pinot noir in 1995 then a second 1 acre planting in 2003 with Syrah (Clone PT23).

    The Syrah  was whole bunch pressed, fermented in large format Stockinger Austrian oak with indigenous yeasts, 11 months lees contact, racked, estate bottled. A small amount of sulphur post malo & pre bottling. No fining, filtering or Tinkering. Thoughtfully produced to reflect on where it was grown.

  8. Alkina Rose 2023
    Alkina Rose 2023
    Grenache rosé, lightly crushed and destemmed, free-run juice drained to stainless steel with a few whole berries for colour, three months on lees. The prettiest of salmon pinks with aromas of redcurrant, raspberry, cranberry and watermelon. Hints of soft spice, peach skin, crushed stone and citrus blossom. Crisp, sapid and true with a plume of red fruits and spice and a wicked, minerally acid line. DAVE BROOKES, Halliday Wine Companion

  9. Chateau Grand Boise Cote de Provence Sainte Victoire Rose 2022
    Chateau Grand Boise Cote de Provence Sainte Victoire Rose 2022

    Top drawer, delicate and ultra mineral, from some of Provence's highest vines.  Certified organic. 

    A little bit exotic with some ripe lime, guava, spice, and dried herb perfume. Fine dusty texture and gentle grip, pink grapefruit and tangy strawberry dusted with white pepper, a little stony too, with some citrus peel tang on a finish of fine length. Quite peppery, yet distinctive and fine.

  10. Honorio Rubio 'Tremendus' Clarete 2021
    Honorio Rubio 'Tremendus' Clarete 2021

    50/50 Viura i Garnacha, co-fermented and aged on lees in stainless after a simple cool fermentation. The Viura and Garnacha are picked, destemmed and macerated together for 2-3 days. Fermentation starts with the skins, but after a day or two the fermenting must is separated by gravity, un-pressed. The young Clarete spends up to a week on gross lees, and is then decanted and aged 6-9 months on fine lees. The lees are compacted by a small amount of bentonite. No further fining or filtration takes place before bottling.

    The look is a lustrous, vibrant see-through ('Clar' or clear being the defining thing!) raspberry pink. It's a nose of rose, red flower petals, ruby grapefruit and a builder's lime whack of chalky soil aroma. A hit of anis-scented Saké. Fresh and crunchy with good acidity, it's chalky on entry, opens easily and closes with a delicately phenolic rim, inflected with wild strawberry and a pink grapefruit-pomelo dollop. Herbs and flowers somewhere between thyme flowers and gardenia stem - run a line throughout.
