’19 MOUNT MICHAEL PINOT ROSE
$28.50 – $342.00
$28.50 per bottle
Extended time on its skins has led to a wine with impressive length and structure with a little more dept in flavour.
With more restraint on the nose the 2019 Mount Michael Rose shows what the darker side Rose is capable of. With blue fruits and a broad, textured palate this Rose is definitely more serious and a mouth filling wine that offers a look at what is possible with Rose when it has more substance.
