- This pale blush pink rosé is lively and crisp, with red-berried fruit and citrus characters through to a refreshing finish. The Solis Lumen range, meaning 'Light of the Sun', was created to highlight the importance of the Mediterranean Sea, sun, and wind, which shape their wines. In contrast, the Stars range has been produced for those who appreciate a modern, fresh, and fruity varietal wine complemented by quirky packaging.
The grapes were carefully selected and then destemmed before undergoing brief skin maceration to impart the delicate pink hue to the juice. To retain the fruity character, fermentation occurred with selected yeasts at 15 to 18°C cool temperatures. The wine spent several months in stainless steel tanks before being bottled young to retain its vibrancy.
A crisp, pale-pink rosé showing subtle aromas of pear, pineapple and citrus through to a refreshing palate of raspberry, rose petal and citrus characters, layered with delicate minerality on the finish.

| Winery | Solis Lumen is made from traditional grape varieties from the South of France. The vineyard is certified organic, and yields are kept low to concentrate the flavours in the juice. The warm Mediterranean climate is influenced by the cooling effect of the sea, resulting in intensely flavoured fruit balanced by natural freshness. The vineyard is farmed traditionally, using mechanical tools rather than chemical herbicides to control weeds; pheromones are used rather than pesticides to reduce pests in the vineyard and grape pomace is employed as fertiliser to nourish the soils. Sustainable cultivation methods preserve the biodiversity and the ecology of the environment in the vineyard. The grapes are harvested in the cool night to retain freshness and quality. |
