Fetherston ‘Peony’ Nebbiolo Rosé 2022 from the Pyrenees’ Malakoff Estate is a pale, salmon–pink rosé that’s fragrant, savoury and beautifully refreshing, offering a seriously classy twist on Nebbiolo in pink form. This Fetherston Peony Nebbiolo Rosé 2022 is all about precision, showing sour cherry, redcurrant, citrus and gentle floral notes over a dry, saline backbone.

In the glass you’ll find aromas of sour cherries, red berries, rose petals and a touch of dried herbs, leading into a crisp, dry palate with redcurrant, blackcurrant, lime and a subtle vanilla–pod spice. There’s a fine, gently grippy phenolic edge and a savoury twist through the finish, giving texture and a grown–up feel without losing that juicy, summer–friendly crunch. Vibrant acidity keeps everything bright and moreish, making it a rosé you can sip all afternoon or take more seriously at the table.

Food–wise, it’s superb as an aperitif or with charcuterie, olives and soft cheeses, where the salty, savoury line ties in beautifully. It also shines with grilled prawns, seared tuna, salmon, niçoise salad, roast chicken, or Mediterranean dishes like tomato and burrata, watermelon and feta, and herby veg on the grill. With 93 points from Halliday and that single–vineyard pedigree, Fetherston ‘Peony’ Nebbiolo Rosé 2022 is a brilliant choice for anyone chasing a dry, structured, food–friendly rosé with real character.
