Il Pinko, 2023

A pink wine with enough spice and grip to drink like a light red, from Syrah grown at 610 metres in Australia's coldest mainland wine region. Bone dry.

A rosé made entirely from Syrah, grown by Alan and Nelly Cooper on granite at 610 metres in the Macedon Ranges, Australia's coldest mainland wine region. It is pale copper-pink, with red cherry, tart raspberry and blood orange, plus a little pepper and anise from the grape. A fine, gentle grip and a salty edge run underneath, and it finishes completely dry. It has more weight and shape than most pink wines.
