Majella Rose 2024 (12 x 750mL)

Majella’s Rosé has been crafted to embody the elegance and vibrancy of Coonawarra. With its light, bright, pale salmon colour and fragrant red fruit aromas, this Rosé is soft, finely textured, and refreshing. The palate is filled with delicate strawberry, raspberry, and pomegranate notes, leading to a smooth and pleasant finish.

Perfect for any occasion, it’s best enjoyed chilled as an aperitif or paired with a casual lunch.

Winemaking

Majella’s Rosé is made with limited skin contact to achieve its delicate colour and elegant structure. Fermentation was completed in stainless steel tanks, and the wine was bottled under screw cap in July to preserve its fresh fruit aromas and vibrant palate.

Vintage Conditions

The 2024 vintage in Coonawarra was exceptional, shaped by unique climate patterns. An El Niño event led to a warm, dry winter, bringing an early start to the growing season. Some late spring frost and unexpected cooler, wetter weather resulted in low to moderate yields. However, the Bonney Upwelling provided cooler temperatures in December and early January, ensuring balance and freshness in the fruit.

After the New Year, warm and dry conditions with cool nights created ideal ripening conditions. Harvest occurred slightly earlier than usual, in late March and April. The 2024 vintage promises high-quality wines, with firm acidity in whites and deeply concentrated reds, showing excellent aging potential.
