The Miles from Nowhere name comes from the journey Franklin Tate’s ancestors made over 100 years ago from Eastern Europe to Australia: upon their arrival, they felt they had travelled “miles from nowhere”.
The philosophy of Miles from Nowhere is based on a passion for seeking out precious pockets of exceptional land and vineyards across the Margaret River region.
For their rosé, Miles From Nowhere focus their sourcing from the southern, cooler parts of Margaret River that produce delicate, ethereal Shiraz. In 2021, they blended a batch of the rare Muscat a petit grains rouge to add to the complexity and uniqueness of our rose.
In the end, this beloved rosé shows the fresh and subtly sweet flavours of a white, with the gentle spices and complexities from the red.

Pere Ventura was created in 1992, named after the founder of this winery in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia (Barcelona), which makes sparkling wines under the auspices of DO Cava. It portrays an inimitable image, which speaks for itself in terms of the product and values which have inspired it: quality, elegance, distinction and prestige.

Anjou appellation covers an area of 128 communes, including a number of sub-regional and communal AOP.
Anjou region has a temperate oceanic climate, but mainly dry, with a narrow variation in temperature, known as the proverbial “douceur angevine” (Angevin delight).
It all began in the mid-1970s when André Dubosc – a third-generation wine grower – set out to build up the reputation of the wines from their region of South-West France. He and other passionate young winegrowers fashioned local dry white wines (now a PGI: Côtes de Gascogne), revived the Saint Mont appellation and gave a new breath of life to the Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh, made from late-harvested grapes. In 1979, these women and men, who put their heart, soul and know-how into producing the best the terroir could offer, decided to strengthen their foothold by uniting their wine cellars and estates. And so they set up the Plaimont union of cooperatives (“Pl” for Plaisance, “Ai” for Aignan and “Mont” for Saint Mont).
It was in the vineyard of Saint Mont, that the devil disguised as a winemaker, succumbed to temptation and stole bunches of Tannat, Pinenc and Cabernet Sauvignon. This cuvee is produced from a blend of the appellation’s three terroirs: clay-limestone, variegated clay and fawn-coloured sand. The parcels have been selected on the basis of their geographically cool situations (north or west-facing) which encourage the development of the aromatic expression of the red grapes with which rosé is made. Will you succumb to temptation?
