JACOBS CREEK Shiraz Rose
A vibrant and youthful pink colour attractive fresh berry aromas and soft spicy flavours are the hallmarks of this wine.
The ideal accompaniment to a wide range of dishes including pasta, white meats, seafood and poultry.
Variable weather conditions were encountered during the ripening period, with the extreme heat wave conditions of mid January giving way to heavy rain periods during the early part of February. As harvest approached weather conditions were generally cool to mild with only few days of intermittent rain.
The generally cool end of season allowed a long but progressive sugar accumulation in the berry, which optimised the sweet and spicy raspberry characters of Shiraz at harvest. Jacob's Creek Shiraz Rose captures both the rich berry fruit flavours of the warmer grape growing districts with the structure and spice from the cooler Shiraz regions.
