Angullong Fossil Hill Rose 2023 Orange

Product Description

Winery Overview
Situated in the stunning foothills of Mount Canobolas, Angullong Wines calls the cool-climate region of Orange home. Located about 350km west of Sydney, the region’s unique landscape is shaped by its high elevation, volcanic soils, and crisp, fresh air. The 2023 Fossil Hill Rosé, made from 100% Sangiovese, captures the essence of this remarkable place with its vibrant and sophisticated character.

Vintage Conditions
The 2023 growing season was marked by cool conditions, allowing the Sangiovese grapes to retain their natural acidity and develop bright, fresh fruit flavours. The region’s high elevation and well-drained soils further enhanced the quality of the fruit, contributing to a rosé with true regional expression.

Winemaking Process
The grapes were carefully harvested and fermented in stainless steel to preserve the freshness and primary fruit characteristics of the Sangiovese. The wine was bottled young to maintain its lively, vibrant appeal and showcase the best of the cool climate.

Tasting Notes
This Rosé boasts a beautiful rose gold hue and opens with vibrant aromas of strawberry, blueberry, and a hint of cream. On the palate, it’s bright and fresh, with intense, lively flavours of blueberry and strawberry. The wine shows lovely elegance and savouriness, balanced by a crisp, natural acidity that gives it a refreshing finish.

Food Pairings
Serve this rosé cool (but not too cold) and enjoy it as an aperitif or alongside antipasti. Its crispness and lively flavours also make it a great match for light salads or fresh seafood dishes.
