✨ Technical Specifications
A playful nod to winemaker Mark Haisma's Australian roots, 'Bogan goes Walkabout' Rosé captures the adventurous spirit of a winemaker who bridged the gap between the Yarra Valley and the classic terroirs of France. Crafted with the same low-intervention, detail-oriented philosophy he applies to his high-end Burgundy crus, this dry rosé is sourced from carefully selected parcels in the south of France. Haisma coaxes a beautiful tension out of the fruit, combining the sun-drenched, expressive berry notes of southern French varieties with a bright, structural acidity and mineral precision that elevates it far beyond a simple summer sipper. It is a vibrant, gastronomic rosé that tells the story of a winemaker on a perpetual journey of discovery.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded by Australian-born winemaker Mark Haisma, a former protégée of Bailey Carrodus at Yarra Yering, this boutique domaine and micro-négociant is headquartered in Gevrey-Chambertin in the heart of Burgundy. Transitioning from the Yarra Valley to France in the late 2000s, Haisma combines Old World terroir sensitivity with New World dynamism across selected parcels in the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, and the Rhône Valley. His winemaking philosophy centers on low intervention, judicious use of whole clusters and neutral oak, and minimal sulfur, allowing site specificity and natural acidity to lead the profile. Renowned for wines ranging from serious Grand Crus like Bonnes-Mares to irreverently named cuvées like 'A Bogan in Bogandy', the portfolio is celebrated for its pristine fruit purity, textural tension, and authentic sense of place.
