About The Wine
This little Pinot Meunier Rosé from the three Dodgiest Brothers in South Australia is pretty as a picture.
Picked nice and early to retain acidity from a vineyard in Piccadilly, this is what Rosé should be about. Crisp, crunchy, dry but with detail and flavour. It's as fun to drink as the label suggests.
Gary Walsh liked it with his 92 point review offering "So much pleasure in the glass. It’s a lovely delicate thing to drink." This is the perfect Sunday afternoon tipple.
A ravishing Rosé that will be very difficult to put down. Only 110 dozen made.
About Dodgy Bros
What started as a small garage winemaking project for viticulturalist Peter Bolte, has grown into a full-time fun-filled winemaking gig.
With fruit secured from top growers with a handshake, Peter, along with Canadian winemaker Wes Pearson and 'grower extraordinaire' Peter Sommerville are now making tasty treats in a wide range of styles from excellent McLaren Vale sites.
The Dodgy Bros wines don't take themselves too seriously. These are adventurous and energetic wines with plenty of personality.

From The Producer
1.6t of Pinot Meunier hand harvested from Swamp Rd, Piccadilly Valley in the Adelaide Hills. Grapes were crushed and destemmed, then basket pressed to tank with no additions, with a 150L portion kept separate to ferment on skins.
Juice was racked after two days cold settling with minimal solids remaining, which led to a 14 day cool ferment. Post primary ferment the wine was racked of lees and cold stabilized. Bottled with no filtering and only a small SO2 addition.
Bottled 21/6/17. 110 Cases produced. 12.0% alc/vol. Artwork by Saul Matthews. Much respect to Don Knotts R.I.P.
Blend : Pinot Meunier (100%)
Closure : Screw cap

Critic Reviews
"If this wine were a sitcom, I suspect it would be an English one. It’s subtle, but loaded with nuance. Pink fruits, including pink grapefruit, a little juniper and earthy tones, almond, redcurrant and pepper dusted strawberries. Light in tone, but chalky in texture, clean acidity, and a peppery cool finish of modest length. So much pleasure in the glass. It’s a lovely delicate thing to drink." - Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)

We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
