Le Petite Mort Rosé


A Tenterfield Rosé: Le Petite Mort Rosé is blood red in colour, with a tinge of orange. It smells of smoky tomato with an orange edge, maybe even with some aniseed. On the palate it is possibly jubie-ish sweet, but not really. There is a sense of water, with further orange-tomato. It is possibly very good with food, like … veal and pork.

The 2016 Sirromet Vineyard Selection Granite Belt Pinot Gris, although blood red in colour, smells of burnt Turkish delight or roses and tastes of dry butterscotch with pepper and possibly geranium.
