Chateau Tanunda's Grand Barossa Dry Rose is a contemporary tribute to the Barossa Valley's historic affinity for Mediterranean grape varieties. Sourced from selected vineyards across the region, where warm, sunny days are tempered by cool evening breezes, this wine showcases the lighter, more elegant side of Barossa Grenache. Crafted in a pale, dry style reminiscent of classic southern French rosés, the winemakers utilize gentle pressing and cool fermentation techniques to preserve the delicate, high-toned aromatics of fresh strawberries, pomegranate, and subtle spice. This wine represents a perfect harmony between the historic soils of the Barossa and modern, refreshing winemaking.
