House of Arras Tasmania Vintage Rose 2014 13.5% (Halliday 97 points) ** SINGLE BOTTLE **

"97 points. Pale salmon pink with an ultrafine bead. Expansive and inviting aromas of bright red fruits and citrus underlined with soft spice, fresh brioche and light sea-spray notes. Immaculate tension on the palate, with autolysis notes wrapping their arms around pure red fruits while walking the ridgeline of grace and latent power with aplomb. A stunning wine." (James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion

Ed Carr has been the head winemaker at Arras since 1998. He  was one of the first winemakers to see the potential Tasmanian  fruit had for producing world class sparkling wine. James Halliday  calls him “a quietly spoken genius, whose name should be known
 around the world. He is, by some considerable distance,  Australia’s greatest sparkling winemaker” 

The House of Arras Rosé is a sophisticated sparkling rosé with a wonderful balance of red fruits and complexity from age.

A contemporary approach with a very subtle rose gold hue and an ultra-fine and persistent bead. Lifted aromas of potpourri, red berries, yoghurt, and Pink Lady apple. An initial rush of the classic Rose flavours of maraschino cherry, Turkish Delight and stone fruits complemented by aged secondary characters of sourdough and field mushroom. An elegantly dry palate with an exquisite balance of fruit, sugar, tannin and acidity. Distinctly mineral in nature with a fine acidity that preserves the beautiful freshness and vibrancy.
