Bill Calabria is the super talented winemaker behind this rose. His parents emigrated from Italy & founded the Westend Estate in 1945. In the 1970s, Bill took over as winemaker & has since won a huge haul of Trophies & medals. He prides himself on the quality of the grapes he uses, largely from his own lovingly tended estate, but also from recommended growers. He encourages low yields, a third less than the norm, picks late & gains impressive concentration in the wines. He inspires such loyalty from his grower mates that no contracts are even drawn up
- all deals are sealed with a handshake. Tasty as a glass on its own, this fruity rose will make a lovely partner to a pea & pancetta risotto or lightly spiced Asian dishes.
