Blend of Merlot, Syrah & Grenache Noir
Pale rosé, fruity, citrus fruit and linden aromas amid pronounced layers of earth and dusty mineral in this dry rosé. Delicious as aperitif, with salad, summer delights...
This special wine takes its name from the owners' two very special Olivia's, Freddie's wife Olivia and James' first born daughter Olivia. Fruit for this wine is selected the best rows of Pinot Noir on the Ward Valley Estate Coastal Block. The fruit was carefully harvested before being transferred to the winery to cold soaked on the skins for 4 hours. This « time on the skin’s » gives the wine it’s salmon pink colour.
Food pairing
The Olivia Rose is perfect for enjoying on its own on hot summer days or pairs beautifully with light fresh meals.

This wine is Mediterranean in style using Pinot Noir grapes. Grapes grown specifically for Rosé production were sourced from a single vineyard in the Southern Valleys.
Floral aromas of orange blossom overlay nuances of crushed berries. The generous palate exudes fleshy tangelo flavours and finishes with a peppery twist. An ideal match with all Mediterranean cuisine.
From a single vineyard situated in new sub-region of Ward, the grapes were picked at dawn to retain freshness from a special parcel of the Pinot Noir clone-Abel. They were gently pressed and fermented and then left for 11 months on the lees before bottling.
A vivacious sparkling rose with an abundance of strawberry and cranberry aromas,plus nuances of rose petal and orange blossom. 100% Pinot Noir grapes, it exudes red fruit flavours finished with a slight sweet spice.
