Mr. Mick Rosé 2025 by Tim Adams Clare Valley Grenache Sangiovese is a characterful Australian rosé wine with lifted strawberry, raspberry and crisp acidity, perfect for Asian cuisine and spicy dishes.
Tasting Notes
Appearance
This 2025 vintage presents a delicate, pale salmon hue—lighter in colour than many rosés—yet vibrant and inviting in the glass. The wine's translucent clarity reflects its careful winemaking and minimal skin contact.
Aroma
The nose is expressive and lifted, revealing fresh strawberry, raspberry and cranberry alongside pink lady apple. Subtle hints of white peach and crunchy rhubarb add complexity, whilst the aromatic profile remains bright and approachable—a testament to fruit grown exclusively for rosé production at the Rogers vineyard in Clare Valley.
Palate
Delicate red berry flavours linger beautifully on the palate, supported by crisp Clare Valley acidity. The wine's dry style features just a touch of residual sugar to balance the natural fruit characters, leading to a cleansing, long finish that leaves you wanting another glass. At 11% alcohol in a 750 mL bottle, this Grenache Sangiovese blend offers refreshment without heaviness.
Pairs With
This versatile rosé can be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif or makes a superb accompaniment to Asian cuisine, particularly dishes with a little spice such as Thai salads, Vietnamese spring rolls, sushi and sashimi, or lightly spiced curries. It also complements grilled prawns, fresh oysters, and Mediterranean mezze platters beautifully.
