Recent success - 2 Mar 17

Domain Road Vineyard - Recent success - <p></p>

 A wine for the last days of summer (or whenever you please!). Our 2016 Pinot Noir Rosé has recently scored its second gold medal - this time in the 2017 Royal Easter Show.  We think it is a delicious wine but self praise being no recommendation we thought it best if we let other people sing its praises.  Mark Henderson who writes the wine review pages for the ODT rated it excellent to outstanding and had this to say " Quite juicy nose, bright and lifted, peaches and cream with strawberries, developing rose petals over time. Powerful yet nicely balanced palate full of summer fruits, with lovely mouthfeel. A lip smacking quality and an excellent finish".  

You can purchase this delectable wine on-line, at our Cellar Door in Felton Road or possibly at a wine shop near you!!

Mention of the last days of summer turns thought to the pending harvest - with the fruit well into veraison Fiona and her team have been busy get the vineyards under nets (birds are pesky things!).  Bringing the nets out of storage are an early indicator of harvest approaching.

Getting ready to roll on Domain Road and the nets on our faithful old truck ready to be transported to Defiance from Domain Road.
