This beautiful still English rosé is made using Rioja yeast and aged in French and American barriques for 3 months. Floral and perfumed, with generous strawberry, sweet peach and red apple on the nose. Fresh raspberry, strawberry jam and dried cranberry on the palate, salivating with just a pinch of tangerine zest and umami notes. Moreish and long. The 'Mary Rose' rosé is made as a part of the estate's Winemakers' Collection (to be launched on 23rd April 2022). The label depicts the Hush Heath Manor gatehouse, designed by British artist Henry Hudson.
