Tasting Notes

The Shepherd’s Hut Rosé 2025 is full of bright, fresh strawberry and summer berry aromas, with a subtle citrus note that adds an extra layer of freshness. On the palate, it’s crisp and clean, with a smooth, lingering finish that leaves you wanting more.

• Screw Cap: Keeps the wine fresh and easy to open.

A New Pinot Noir-Led Style

The 2025 Shepherd’s Hut Rosé is made primarily from Pinot Noir, marking a change from previous vintages. Pinot Noir is particularly well suited to rosé because its skins can provide a delicate pink colour and its fruit naturally expresses flavours such as strawberry, cherry, raspberry and other red berries. In this wine, the variety gives the rosé a generous fruit profile without making it feel heavy. The result is a dry but soft and approachable wine with plenty of flavour. It is an excellent choice for drinkers who enjoy the fragrance and red fruit of Pinot Noir but want something lighter, colder and more refreshing.

Technical Terms Explained

Skin Contact: Refers to the process of leaving the grape skins in contact with the juice for a short period to impart colour and some flavour to the wine, as done with this rosé.
Acidity: Gives the wine its crisp, fresh character. It balances out the fruitiness, keeping the wine lively and refreshing on the palate.

About Shepherd’s Hut

Shepherd’s Hut is a boutique, family-owned vineyard in Porongurup, established by the Wishart family in 1996. The vineyard and wine label take their name from an 1850s stone shepherd’s hut discovered in ruins on the property. The family carefully relocated and rebuilt the hut using its original honey-coloured stone. Today, the restored hut overlooks the vineyard and provides views towards the Porongurup and Stirling Ranges. The family produces cool-climate, single-vineyard wines with a focus on quality, approachability and a clear expression of their Porongurup property.

I've been ordering from Partners in Wine for three years now - from the UK for my sister living in Perth. Each time they've been bang on with my order including  on time delivery. Kirk has also helped me select my wines from an extensive list.  A very pleasant and friendly company to deal with. I would highly recommend them.
