The first rosé in the history of Clarence Dillon Wines, Clarendelle Rosé is the result of uncompromising efforts to reflect the terroir of one of the world's greatest vineyard regions. This elegant, well-balanced wine is made from a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.

The Merlot is first to ripen and enjoys a natural softness. It provides the wine with a beautiful deep purple colour. "This mantle" cloaks a soft velvety roundness which one could say provides the body of this assemblage.

The Cabernet Sauvignon, later-ripening varietals, provides both the freshness and armature for the wine thereby bringing with it refinement and structure but also a greater potential for aging.

The Cabernet Franc offers a deep colour and subtle floral aromas, an extra elegance or even a soul to our wine.
