2021 Architects of Wine Rosato

This is Rosé for those with a Rosato penchance- and is the perfect choice for those who aren't heading to Italy (like everyone else is) this year! 

Rosato is just the Italian word for Rosé, the grape varieties featured are of Italian heritage, and this wine has a beautiful interplay between bright, ripe fruits and a savoury backbone. Architects of Wine are fast becoming a little cult winery, so nab yourself a slice with this bottle. 

'Architects Of Wine is the passion project of architect turned winemaker David Caporaletti. David’s dream came to fruition in early 2013 after a backyard hobby quickly became an obsession. It’s this experimentation that allows every release and vintage to be completely different and truly reflective of the years conditions. 

David's aims with AOW is to create interesting and textural wines with restraint, whilst maintaining transparent expressions of the vineyard, vintage and their individual terroir. The hands off approach to the winemaking allows the purity of the fruit to shine through. All wines are fermented on wild yeasts that are native to their respective vineyards, wines are neither fined or filtered which helps in retaining maximum flavour. There are no additions in the winery apart from small amounts of SO2 when deemed to be required. '
