100% Syrah

Winemaking Notes

A crisp, dry Provençal-style rosé made from 100% Syrah. The delicate pale pink salmon hue of this rosé perfectly disguises the vibrancy that lies within. Hand picked and hand sorted, the wine was gently whole-cluster pressed over a 4-hour period.  A 7-day period of Stabulation followed, where the juice was left on the gross lees and stirred twice daily before the onset of fermentation. Only free-run juice made its way into this wine.

Tasting Profile

This fruit-forward wine has amazing depth and complexity. The vibrant nose has aromas of crabapple, watermelon, wild strawberries, and cherries. On the palate, the entry is bright and juicy, dominated by rich flavours of wild red berries, rhubarb and lime zest.  Crisp acidity with only the slightest hint of white pepper, this wine finishes dry.

Food Pairings

Refreshing on its own, our rosé is also a highly versatile wine on the table. The textural complexity, deep flavour and crisp acidity enables Omertà to pair well with many different dishes: Nicoise salad, grilled lemon-garlic prawns and paella come to mind.  Want to see the versatility of this rosé? Try it with a Sous Vide Pork Tenderloin (click for recipe).
