Oates End Tempranillo Rosé 2024 from Margaret River is a pale, onion‑skin pink rosé that channels a really smart, dry Provençal vibe from pure tempranillo. It opens with red cherry, strawberry, watermelon and cranberry, layered with crushed herbs, ruby grapefruit and a gentle spice lift.

On the palate this Oates Ends Tempranillo Rosé 2024 is bone‑dry, bright and saline, with tangy acidity, fine chalky tannins and a long, savoury, elegant finish that feels more Bandol than simple pink drink. It holds its flavour superbly, making it as serious as it is smashable for spring and summer drinking.

Food‑wise, it is brilliant with antipasto, charcuterie, grilled prawns, barbecued Mediterranean veg, salt‑and‑pepper squid and soft cheeses, and will also shine with tomato‑based dishes and pizza. Serve well chilled and pour generously – this is top‑shelf Margaret River rosé.
