2014 Harcourt Valley Grenache Rosé

'The site represents the future': so says the ever-interesting Australian wine critic, Jane Faulkner, referring to the Heathcote wine region in Victoria. That region is my big discovery this month, and in particular Harcourt Valley Grenache Rosé. It's one of the best Rosés I've ever drunk: very quaffable, said a friend. The 2014 is near-ripe tomato in colour, with the smell of oats, and a delicious, dry palate. Though only around $20, the label says Harcourt Valley Vineyards produce, in a boutique, family-based business, premium wines in small batches. The winemakers are Barb, Quinn and Kye Livingstone. The label is memorable: a tree in gloss black, the vineyard name, then the tree roots in matt brown, all on a white label. Unfortunately their website doesn't work for me when I go to the selection of individual styles under 'Wines'.
