✨ Technical Specifications
The Aquarius Rosé from McPherson Wines is a vibrant expression of Central Victoria's contemporary winemaking spirit. Named after the water-bearer zodiac sign to reflect fluidity, creativity, and a fresh approach, this wine is crafted to capture the bright, sun-drenched essence of the region. Sourced from selected vineyards in Victoria where warm days are tempered by cool evening breezes, the grapes are harvested at optimal freshness. Winemaker Jo Nash employs gentle pressing and cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the delicate floral aromas, bright red berry flavors, and crisp, refreshing acidity that define this modern Australian Rosé style.
