Description

Stelvin. Complex, seductive, yet vibrant and lip-smackingly delicious—that pretty much sums up Luke Lambert’s Crudo Rosé. This year’s wine is 100% Denton Syrah. The fruit was picked early and whole-bunch pressed before the cloudy juice was sent to tank for a wild ferment and wild malo before storage in 4,000-litre French oak foudre. Bottled, as usual, without filtration and with minimal sulphur.

The result is a beautifully savoury expression that, according to its maker, is a “…similar wine to the 2019, perhaps with greater subtlety and perfume thanks to the excellent long and slow growing season”. So, an incredibly moreish rosé with talc, river stone and wild strawberry lift. Cracking value.
