Robert Stein Farm Series Rosé 2024 from Mudgee is a pale‑salmon, gently off‑dry pink that nails that easy‑drinking country‑estate vibe – bright red fruits, a lick of sweetness, and a super‑fresh finish. This Farm Series Rosé 2024 leans on Merlot and Shiraz from the estate, keeping alcohol around 12% and the style very smashable.

In the glass you get rose petal, raspberry, bramble and a little nettle and spice, over a core of crushed red fruits and sherbet. The palate is softly textured and lively, showing strawberries and raspberries with that sherbet‑spritz character, a touch of residual sugar, and a refreshingly dry, lemony finish that keeps it from ever feeling cloying.

This Robert Stein Farm Series Rosé 2024 is made for summer platters – think prawns, grilled fish, sushi, Vietnamese salads, or a simple antipasto spread with soft cheeses and cured meats. It’s also an excellent fridge‑door bottle for park picnics, pizza nights or a glass on the verandah watching the sun drop over the paddocks.
