Description: Floyd returns for summer 2025, with everything you want and need right now...a lovely pink wine with boundless fruit and energy!!

Floyd is a chilled red or luscious rose, all about the enjoyment of Nero D’Avola in its most youthful and vibrant form, this year joined with a small portion of early picked Metcalfe Syrah. Nero, grown by Chalmers vineyard in Northern Heathcote, Syrah grown by us. To capture all that vital young energy we pick early and ferment only a small amount of skins in firmly pressed Nero rose juice to allow acid to remain fresh, fruit to jump and skin tannin to play a grounding roll to all the excitement. Floyd is carefully racked in early Spring, bottled with a small sulphur addition.

The fruit here is vivid and lifted and red and blue and energetic, tempered with a faint hummm of skin tannin and fresh natural acid. Pomegranate, stewed plums and fresh strawberries with anise, poached quince…autumnal, but made for summer! Early spring Floyd is happily served at house temperature, but as these months warm up Floyd will find his way into fridges and eskies and hearts everywhere.
