Sangiovese Rosé
At Yalumba we believe that one good wine leads to another. The Y Series was created with that belief in mind. The Y Series represents a collection of iconic classics and exciting new varietals. Each authentically crafted with fruit from South Australia’s most celebrated wine regions.
Wine Production
Once picked, the grapes are crushed and left in contact with their skins for between one and three hours to obtain the desired colour. The juice is then run off the skins into a stainless steel tank to undergo wild fermentation.
Tasting Notes
A highly aromatic wine showing notes of strawberries and cream, lavender and pomegranate. The palate is vibrant and refreshing with layers of rhubarb, blood orange and cranberry. Sophisticated with a dry finish of zesty acidity.
Food Pairing
Enjoy with rockmelon wrapped in prosciutto; Thai-style sweet corn fritters or strawberry gazpacho.

About the Vineyard
The grapes for the 2017 Sangiovese Rosé come from three distinct vineyards within the Barossa Valley and Wrattonbully. The two Barossa Valley blocks include Tony Brooks’ vineyard in Gomersal, with rich, red brown earth over limestone giving the wine depth and length; while Kevin Burgemeister’s Penrice site of brown, sandy loam gives the wine perfume and freshness. Our Wrattonbully vineyards are distinctly terra rossa, red sandy loam over limestone, giving the wine a powerful depth of flavour coupled with a mineral texture.
