Hay Shed Hill's Pitchfork Pink Rosé is a fantastic modern style of Rosé which provides luscious berry flavours along with balanced savouriness and a delightful spice on the back palate. Far removed from the strawberry sweet Rosé styles of years gone by, the Pitchfork Pink is ideal to sip lovingly on a Sunday afternoon with great family and friends.

Former Gourmet Traveller WINE Viticulturist of the Year, the Chalmers family is renowned as Australia's key pioneer with so-called "alternative varieties", as grapevine importers, growers and cheerleaders of so many Mediterranean grapes that are enjoying great demand nowadays. In 2017 Chalmers once again sourced the grapes for their rosato from the highest altitude, most prized block at their Heathcote site. For the first time, though, all three of the varieties planted there made it into this unique blend. Aglianico (63%), Sagrantino (33%) and Nero d'Avola (4%) were hand-picked, whole bunch-pressed, and vinified separately.

Tasting notes: Fresh and rich, silky and spicy texture, creamy and tangy, citrus flavours. Impressive fullness and superb finale.

Juicy redcurrant and raspberry flavours, slight minerality expressing stone fruit and citrus notes perfectly balanced with subtle creaminess and a crisp natural acidity.

A pale colour, with a balance between fresh strawberry and zesty lime, it is very much based on the style that matches with an Australian Summer.
