2023 Chaffey Bros Lux Venit Rosé

92 POINTS

Dave Brookes - Halliday Wine Companion

A rosé formed of old-vine grenache and mourvédre, pale, lightly copper-tinged with fruit tones of crunchy red apple, red cherry and ruby red grapefruit. Hints of red berry cream, marzipan, soft spice, pressed flowers, distant dried herbs and raspberry jelly. There is just a swell of texture before the wine releases and sails on, sidling across the dry side of the slope and finishing savoury, dry and moreish.
