It has been many years since I visited the Beechworth region. In those days, it was Giaconda, Sorrenberg, Savaterre, and Castagnia. It has always been a high quality region, but now, a number of newer wineries have joined in. One of them is Domenica - well, the winemaker is ex Giaconda.
Rosé is not a wine style I often report on, but when it is based on Nebbiolo, it attracts my interest. This is because the rose petal notes so suit Rosé.
The 2020 Domenica Nebbiolo Rosé displays an attractive salmon pink colour, as shown above. There is an attractive mix of orange peel, red cherry and musk on the palate. The attractive acidity leads to a dry and refreshing finish. This Rosé delivers a good balance of lightness and seriousness.
Score: 88/+
