Common Ground Rose

"Crafting an exceptional Rose is one of the greatest challenges for a winemaker. Striking the perfect balance between refreshing vibrancy and delicate savoury nuances requires patience, precision, and no shortage of trial and error. After more than 15 vintages refining my approach, I've found my rhythm. Mataro is a brilliant variety to work with - leaning towards savoury red fruit rather than the inherent sweetness of Shiraz, with expressive aromatics and a gentle, slow release of colour from the skins. Grown in the Barossa's tougher soils, these smaller berries ripen gradually under warm days and cool nights, resulting in a wine of striking aromatic lift, bright red fruit purity, and crisp, refreshing acidity. The result? A beautifully poised, effortlessly enjoyable Rose that speaks of its place and variety with clarity and charm." - Kym Teusner
