Tasting Notes
Appearance
Mount Langi Ghiran Billi Billi Rosé 2023 presents a bright, pale pink hue with excellent clarity — the hallmark of a cool-climate Grampians Rosé crafted from 75% Sangiovese and 25% Shiraz, whole bunch pressed to tank and fermented cool to retain freshness and delicacy. Elegant and immediately inviting in the glass.
Aroma
Subtly spiced and beautifully fragrant on the nose — strawberries and wild cherries lead with a fresh, clean generosity that is immediately charming. The cool-climate Grampians character of Mount Langi Ghiran shines through with the elegance and restraint that has made this estate one of Australia’s most celebrated cool-climate producers. Delicate, fresh and effortlessly appealing.
Palate
Bone dry and beautifully balanced — raspberry and strawberry notes lead with a bright, fresh vibrancy, balanced against a crisp acidity that keeps the palate lively and food-friendly. The whole bunch pressing and cool fermentation preserve the natural freshness and delicacy of the Sangiovese and Shiraz blend, delivering a Rosé of genuine elegance, character and length.
Pairs With
A natural match for light summer fare — grilled prawns, fresh oysters, charcuterie, soft-ripened cheeses, tomato-based pasta or a classic Niçoise salad. The bone dry palate, raspberry and strawberry fruit and crisp acidity make this one of the most versatile and rewarding cool-climate Rosés from the Grampians. Serve well chilled.
