2024 Backyard Stories Rose
WINEMAKER’S NOTES
Our eighth release of a small quantity of Backyard Rose, made from 100% Sangiovese. We think the gentle handing and exclusive use of Sangiovese has honed the style to where we need to be for length of flavour and savoury interest at the heart of the wine.
