Description

Tasting Notes

A Rosato bearing my mothers name that expresses her softly spoken manners in a style she orchestrated me to vinifi for her via her upbringing of a natural progression of zero sulfite dosage.

Handpicked during the first cool light hours of the morning. 100% whole bunch basket pressed to seasoned puncheon French oak for natural fermentation with lees aging for 6 months prior to bottling.

Sangiovese vines from our original farmhouse located at Mt McKenzie at an altitude of 380mt that lays upon a clay loam and shaley schist rock bed. Second vineyard located at Moppa Springs at an altitude of 355mt that lays upon red clay loam and iron stone.

Very mild through spring and summer. with good top-up rainfall. a mild long dry summer has fruit of amazing flavours and natural holding acidity. Style Beautifully perfumed & complex. aromatics of musk. white cherries & aniseed. Bursts of flavours carry through from the aromatics with spicy acidity. chalky crunchy texture. salivating & dry

*Vintage may vary. Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is displayed. however variations can occur.

About The Winery

Torzi Matthews. a food and winemaking partnership between Domenic Torzi and Tracy Matthews have passion and the firm conviction of appreciating the value of heritage tradition in the crafting of their wines and olive produce.

In 1996 we stumbled across a small. frost-pocketed hollow in the beautiful Mt McKenzie. Eden Valley and fell in love with the area for its remoteness and its diverse thin soils. The rationale was quite simple: this land would produce low yields of fruit which in turn would translate into flavoursome European style wines.

Our wines are crafted via non-interventional Italian / European techniques that employs careful hand harvesting. whole bunch natural ferments. basket pressed and the use of fine grained French oak barrels.
