Angove Organic Rose 2024

Angove Organic Rose is a bright, easy-going South Australian pink built around organically certified Shiraz, with a splash of Sauvignon Blanc adding extra lift. Expect strawberry, red berry, blueberry and crunchy watermelon, plus a subtle apple note, all carried by crisp acidity and a clean, just-dry finish. The fruit comes from Angove's Nanya Vineyard near Paringa in the Riverland, delivering plenty of sunshine without losing freshness. Certified organic and vegan friendly, it is a smart fridge-door option for grilled seafood, spicy Asian dishes or a warm afternoon that needs something cold and uncomplicated.

What the winery says:

Angove says the Shiraz was harvested at dawn in early February, then lightly crushed and pressed to limit colour and tannin. Fermentation took place under cool, temperature-controlled conditions in stainless steel, with Sauvignon Blanc added during blending. Delicate pink in colour, the wine shows strawberry, blueberry, crunchy watermelon and apple aromas, followed by crisp red-berry flavour and a clean finish. The winery recommends drinking it within two to three years and serving it with grilled seafood or spicy Asian cuisine.

What the experts say:

Cameron Douglas MS, 92 Points (2024)
“Just dry on the palate with flavours that mirror the bouquet set in a satin texture with medium+ acidity and mineral overtones.”
