Jansz Premium Rose

Jansz Premium Non Vintage Cuvée Sparkling Rosé, Tasmania, Australia

Grapes: A classic "Champagne” blend, multi vintage, Pinot Noir dominated with Chardonnay and a dash of Pinot Meunier.

Producer Tasting Note:

Jansz Rosé offers a vibrant delicate pink colour with a fine persistent bead, notes of Turkish delight and delicate rose petal floras, with fresh cream and nougat. This wine is rich with the creaminess of the mousse while the Pinot contributes strawberry notes that fill the palate, giving a nice fresh finish. A great wine for enjoying as part of a celebration or on a beautiful afternoon.

Critics' Tasting Notes:

"Tasmania is a hotspot for the production of traditional method sparkling wines, and Janz, part of the Yalumba family group, is a reliable stalwart. This is 94% Pinot Noir with 4% Chardonnay and 2% Pinot Meunier, sourced from cool climate vineyards across Tasmania, and given 18 months on the lees before disgorgement. Pale in colour and opening with strawberries and cream, but I find something pleasingly earthy and umami-like in there too. In the glass the bubbles are persistent, and the palate shows a breadth of ripe red fruits, a fine twist of something more tart, like raspberry, then good acidity to play against the fruit, with only 7.4g/l dosage ensuring a savoury edge to this."

"The grapes for this rosé are sourced from selected sites across Tasmania, from the Pipers River and Tamar Valley regions in the north, to the Coal River Valley in the south. The colour is barely there, but the wine is ever present thanks to its enticing creamy textures, strawberry, pie crust, and elegant styling. It is a perfect match with smoked salmon blinis and crème fraîche. The winemaking is a simple affair: hand-picking, gentle whole bunch pressing, cool fermentation, full malolactic fermentation, assemblage, and extended ageing on lees. It is released after three months of bottle age. The blend is 77/23 pinot /chardonnay. Now under Diam cork to preserve all its most delicate scents."
