David Franz Red Rosé One Hundred And Eight Varieties

David Franz Red Rosé One Hundred And Eight Varieties is too insane to be true... But here it is! A vibrant wine made from an epic 108 varieties.

Pale seductive pink colour. A fragrant bouquet of ripe raspberries, toffee apples, rose petals and Turkish Delight. The medium bodied palate has a tight acidity and is slightly dry. Generous raspberry and red currant crush flavour with a smear of lime and butterscotch sorbet. Slightly sweet but crisp finish.

The cornucopia of varieties creates a layered and textural rosé that is a Tour de France of aromatics and textured nuances. Bursting with drinkability and flavour!

One hundred and eight varieties from the Western Barossa, South Australia. 53% from David Franz Stonewell Hill and Stelzer Road blocks, 36% from Kevin Bartch’s Nursery block on Langmeil Road (Tanunda), and 11% from James Lindner’s Seppelstfield Road block.

Just over two tonnes of fruit from the old patch of 1923 planted mixed varietals in the David Franz Stonewell Hill block. Half a tonne of old school Crouchen and 100 or so kilos of white Frontignac. Next, 800 kilos of Barossa Riesling grown in the David Franz Stelzer Road block and a juicy tonne of Black Muscat from Jimmy Lindner. The entire harvest (six and a half varicoloured tonnes) was delivered in five separate picks from Kevin Bartsch’s enviable library of 105 mixed wine and table grape varieties grown on Barossa Nurseries, Langmeil Road block.'

Vinification:

Each batch of grapes goes through destemming to open fermenters. Chilling on skins to 5°C for up to 5 days. After basket pressing, free run juice and pressings were combined and filled to barrel for a cold ferment on full lees over 5–6 weeks. After adding sulphites, the barrels spent 12 months on lees before racking and bottling.
