MAYFIELD 2023 'FIVE ROWS' ROSE ($30 / Orange NSW)
The enticing pale salmon colour is followed by multi-layered delivery of freshness and delicacy of aromas & flavours.
Jubey high notes of Cabernet Franc-ish varietal characteristics, channel the Loire Valley savoury style.
Elegantly mellow yet not cloying, it unpacks waves of mixed herbs and blackcurrant.
It's a refreshing and enjoyably Rosé ready to grace these current last bursts of warm weather. It would also cross food boundaries & ours was well matched with a freshly air-fried chicken frittata.
