Description

The Harkham Alchimie Rose brings together lovely fruit and wonderful tastes to create a delightful Shiraz-based Rose.

Made without the use of any preservatives or additives, this Rose is about as natural as can be. The Shiraz aromas and flavours are easily noticeable when smelling and tasting the wine, with lovely red fruits. While there has only been a small amount of skin contact with the wine, it has a medium body and a silky mouthfeel, making it a very pleasant wine to drink. There may be a little bit of spritz after opening the bottle, but that will soon dissipate, leaving a truly delicious wine.

Our natural Rose was fermented by indigenous yeasts, without the use of any additions or preservatives. It has been bottled without fining agents or unnecessary stabilisations to convey the full flavours of the Hunter Valley and may show traces of natural sediment. The wine was produced without any sulphite additions and contains a natural high level of CO2. This may be perceptible as a slight spritz and dryness while young and will keep it fresh for a longer life.

92 Points - "Apricot tart and mandarines. Aromas appear to be a touch sweet but it's full-on savoury with flint, dried herbs, nuts and dusty lavender. Kinda salty pastry texture. It's not focused on red fruit, more orange citrus, perhaps a touch of white/underripe strawberries. It's not crazy complex but it doesn't have to be, it has the appeal and it's very moreish. The hue is electric and I can't help but think that the acidity and flavours that build up towards the end have that electric bite to them too. It works the charm. Autumnal rose with a balmy texture. It's one for dreamy sunset sessions. Yes, 'golden brown, texture like sun', but here more copper orange, texture like sunset…" - Kasia Sobiesiak (The Wine Front)

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
