Mattinson review of Moppity Lock & Key Rosé 2023.

Moppity Lock & Key Rosé 2023
$30, 12% alcohol, screwcap, Hilltops.

This delicious rosé was made with grenache grown in the cool-climate region of the NSW Hilltops. It’s fresh and more-ish and then some. It tastes of red cherries, strawberries, orange jelly and spiced apples but more importantly every sip of it feels mouthwatering and energetic. The balance of this wine is spot on and while it’s made in a dry style, it’s both juicy and refreshing. You can’t go wrong here. 92 points.
