Wine of the month
Mount Majura Rosé 2009
This fresh, crisp and lively Rosé made from early-picked Merlot grapes is packed with the flavour of summer berries and finishes dry. Drink chilled, with dappled sunshine.
At Mount Majura Vineyard, the team produce more grapes each year than they make into wine, so it's easy to start playing with a new style for no better reason than the grapes are there - and it’s fun to try new things. Fun is basically what the Rosé is about. Fun to make, fun to look at, fun to drink.
Mount Majura makes their rosé from merlot grapes at about 12 Baumé ripeness. The juice is pressed from the skins after about 20 hours, and then fermented cool and protectively for maximum aroma and fresh 'fruit salad' flavour.
