Discovery Road | Graciano Rosé

A rare red variety in the Barossa, our Rosé crafted from the Spanish varietal Graciano, was born from a twist of fate. A neighbouring grower was left high and dry for a home for his Graciano, after his corporate supply contract was cancelled just days before it was due for picking. We took it in, more as a favour at the time, but discovered it to be a fascinating varietal.
Its skin colour is extremely concentrated and it has naturally high tannin, making it challenging to craft a lightly coloured Rosé from. Its natural acidity however, and alluring rose petal, raspberry, and musk notes, compelled us to treat it gently, to craft a delicate pink, dry and mouth-watering wine.
