Westbound Margaret River Rose 2022
About the wine
Delicate but fruity dry rose
- The grapes were chosen from regions of the Margaret River that produce the perfect fruit for Rosé - generous and fruity. Minimal time on skin has preserved the delicate salmon colour and kept the tannins at bay.
- Pour a glass and take in its classic ‘strawberry and cream’ jubes, candied musk and turkish delightness. Fruity but not sweet, this Rosé has lasting flavours with savoury hints and a lip-smakingly crisp dry finish.
- This is a classic Margaret River Rosé - delicate, fresh and easy drinking, and offers great value. Drink it young and well chilled and enjoy Ben's delicious WA expertise!
Best before
Ready to refrigerate and drink upon purchase, however, will continue to drink well within the next 12 to 18 months.
Serving advice
Serve chilled, with or without food, picnics, barbeques, while entertaining, this Rose will not disappoint.
Food match
Pour this Rose while cooking some Margaret River Abalone on the BBQ. Quick tip for local Margs Abs, once shucked give these morsels one big tenderising whack, before crumbing in panko and cooking on a hotplate before the main course. The Rose will pair perfectly with any similar shellfish.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Ben Rector
- Ben Rector is out to show the potential of the lesser known vineyards of WA. With more than 20 years experience across some of Australia's premier winemaking regions, he knows exactly what to look for in grape quality, no matter the climate. In 2019, he was awarded the Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot trophies at the regional wine show.
- The Pemberton and Geographe regions of South West WA are Ben's main focus. His aged release reds have all sold out in record time, and his flair for Chardonnay is undeniable.
- Ben takes great pride in his artistic licence, always ensuring that his wines go above and beyond. Angel feedback is gold dust, and the support he has received has allowed Ben to increase his output astronomically. All this in five short Naked years...what will he do next?!
