Description

Nebbiolo truly makes for a fantastic grape to use in Rosato/Rose, keeping it crisp and dry. But this one from Longview adds just in a little bit of Pinot Noir, too, which comes together as a truly sensual coupling.

Strawberries, floral blossoms, red currants and a line of minerality all greet you in aromatics and on the palate; it just flows so beautifully, coming into a savoury finish.

Impossible to stop at just one glass. It's a great pink number at a great price.

Vineyard & Winemaking Notes

The famed 1-11 clone of Nebbiolo makes up the majority of the blend for our Rosato. As the 2022 vintage was very small, we also picked a high-quality parcel of Pinot Nero to blend in with the Nebbiolo. This addition gives the wine additional perfume lift as well as a wonderful acid line. Our 25 year old Nebbiolo and Pinot Nero vines are all cane pruned, shoot thinned early and bunch thinned twice to ensure low yields and even ripening. Wire lifting and leaf plucking is performed for air circulation late in the season to improve drying conditions. The fruit was handpicked, then chilled to 10˚C. It was then crushed, de-stemmed and the free run juice separated and fermented for this light rosé style.

Vintage Notes

2023 was a very cool vintage with intermittent rainfall, prolonging the ripening period, enabling good fruit flavor development without high sugars. The Longview team worked very hard in the vineyard ensuring good airflow and bunch positioning to help ripen evenly. Most varietals were harvested much later than most years however this ensured fruit flavour and balance. Whilst the yield was down across the board, 2023 will be remembered as an excellent vintage which should age magnificently.

    Smashable Rose

    Ticks all the boxes for a rose. Smashable, red berries and a bit floral on the nose, looks pretty in the glass, and a great price. Will be adding to cart again for sure.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
