The 2023 Le Fauve by Charteris Rosé is a vibrant cool-climate rosé that reflects the precision and elegance for which Charteris Wines has become known. Crafted in a dry, contemporary style, this wine showcases bright fruit purity and freshness, opening with lifted aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry and pink grapefruit, complemented by delicate floral notes and a subtle savoury edge.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with crisp natural acidity and a finely textured mouthfeel. Flavours of red berries, watermelon and blood orange are layered with hints of citrus peel and mineral freshness, creating a rosé that is both refreshing and food-friendly. The finish is clean, dry and persistent, with lingering red fruit and citrus notes providing excellent balance.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic rosé for customers who enjoy fresh, dry styles with plenty of character and versatility. Its bright acidity and vibrant fruit profile make it an excellent match for grilled prawns, fresh oysters, charcuterie, summer salads and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. Best enjoyed well chilled while youthful and vibrant over the next 2–4 years.
