The Ciel Hostess Rose is produced from a blend of Montepulciano and Grenache grapes. The Montepulciano grapes are sourced from a vineyard in the Halletts Valley region of the Barossa Valley and are then blended with a small amount of Old Vine Grenache.
The Grenache was naturally wild fermented to complete the dryness, and was left to mature in seasoned French Oak barrels, where it underwent natural fermentation for 3 months before being blended with the Montepulciano before being settled, racked and bottled.
Soft pink in the glass, this Rose features notes of watermelon and cotton candy with rose water aromas all balanced with lip-smacking acidity.
Like its namesake the Hostess, who is there to provide you with a sweet and soft welcome to get you feeling in the mood, the Ciel Hostess Rose is charming with a dry sense of humour, but with the pinkest lips you have ever seen. Please follow me to your table.
The Ciel Pâtissiere is a 2018 Vintage Rose Sparkling wine made in the traditional method. This method involves a second fermentation in the bottle to create the premium complex characteristics of a quality sparkling wine. This wine was aged for 3 years on lees to impart a rich, bready flavour to balance the beautiful freshness of the fruit.
