Tasting Notes

Pale pink with a soft salmon blush. The aroma opens with wild strawberry, raspberry and redcurrant, followed by rose petal, dried herbs and a little pink pepper spice. The palate is dry and light-bodied, carrying juicy red berries, citrus zest and a clean, crisp line of acidity. It finishes fresh and moreish, with just enough texture to work beautifully with food.

Winemaking

The grapes are gently pressed with minimal skin contact to achieve a delicate blush colour. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel to preserve freshness, aromatics and purity of fruit. The style is clean, dry and fruit-bright, with no oak influence and a focus on crisp red-berry character.

Vineyard & Vintage

Farm Hand Organic Rosé comes from the Monash Valley in South Australia’s Riverland, a warm inland region well suited to generous fruit and bright, easy-drinking styles. The fruit is grown using certified organic viticulture, with the 2025 vintage showing pale colour, lifted red berries and clean acidity. It is made for early enjoyment while the fruit is vibrant and refreshing.

Why We Love It

This is the kind of rosé that earns its place in the fridge. It is dry, crisp and pretty without being sugary, with enough red-berry flavour to satisfy and enough citrus lift to keep it fresh. A lovely value organic option for picnics, seafood, salads and warm evenings.

Producer

FAQ

What does Farm Hand Organic Rosé 2025 taste like?

It tastes dry, fresh and red-fruited, with wild strawberry, raspberry, rose petal, citrus zest and a faint herbal edge. The palate is light-bodied and crisp, with clean acidity and a gently spicy finish. It is ideal for drinkers who enjoy bright, refreshing rosé rather than sweet pink wine.

Is this rosé sweet or dry?

This is a dry rosé. The fruit gives a pretty strawberry and raspberry impression, but the finish is crisp and clean rather than sugary. Residual sugar is very low, around 2 g/L.

Is Farm Hand Organic Rosé certified organic?

Yes. Farm Hand Organic Rosé is certified organic and made from organically grown grapes. That means the vineyard approach avoids synthetic chemical fertilisers and pesticides used in conventional grape growing.

Does this wine contain preservatives or sulphites?

This wine is certified organic, but it is not listed as a No Added Preservative wine. Most wines contain some naturally occurring sulphites from fermentation, and organic wines are generally made within lower permitted sulphite limits than conventional wines. Choose a labelled preservative-free wine if you specifically need no added sulphur dioxide.

Is this wine vegan friendly?

Yes. Farm Hand Organic Rosé is listed as vegan suitable. That makes it a handy choice for mixed tables, picnics and casual entertaining where dietary preferences matter.

How should I serve Farm Hand Organic Rosé?

Serve well chilled at around 8–10°C in a standard white wine glass or rosé glass. There is no need to decant it. Open, pour and keep it chilled between glasses to preserve the crisp red-berry freshness.

What food pairs well with this rosé?

It works beautifully with prawns, grilled fish, Vietnamese rice paper rolls, watermelon salad, feta, olives and roast vegetable dishes. The acidity cuts through salt and richness, while the berry fruit suits chilli, herbs and citrus. For a simple vegetarian match, try tomato, basil and burrata with good olive oil.

How long will it last after opening?

Once opened, seal the bottle and store it in the fridge. It is best enjoyed within 2–3 days while the fruit and acidity are still lively. After that, the wine may still be drinkable but will lose some of its brightness.

Can this wine be cellared?

This is a drink-now rosé, made for freshness and early enjoyment. It can be kept for up to two years under good storage conditions, but it will be at its best young. Chill it, open it and enjoy the 2025 vintage while the fruit is bright.

Who will enjoy this wine the most?

This is a great pick for anyone who likes dry Australian rosé, Provence-style freshness or crisp organic pink wines. It will also suit white wine drinkers who want something light, chilled and food-friendly. If you like strawberry-led rosé with clean acidity, this is very easy to enjoy.

Is this wine keto friendly?

With residual sugar around 2 g/L, this is a very low-sugar dry wine. It can suit many lower-carb preferences when enjoyed in moderation. As always, suitability depends on your own dietary goals and serving size.
