The Real Review Feature - Cinsault Nouveau

We were very fortunate to have the 2024 Cinsault Nouveau featured as The Real Review ‘s Cellar Talk of the Week

Huon Hooke

Chambers Rosewood Cinsault Nouveau 2024, Rutherglen

“A venerable, ultra-traditional winery in a region famous for blood-and-thunder red wines turns its hand to an ultra-modern style of smashable, drink-now red. Bravo!

Light-medium purple-red colour; the bouquet quite detailed with a range of seed spice aromas together with dusty raspberry and strawberry notes, a whiff of clean leather, the palate opening with an impression of sweetness before the grapy flavours turn to softly drying tannins at the clean and more-ish finish.

A very smart early-drinking red, just right for warmer weather. (Screwcap)”
