"Fresh and bright, the elegantly fragrant bouquet shows sweet strawberry, lemon zest, Gala apple and white floral nuances. The palate is linear and lively with lovely fruit purity combined with fine texture and crisp acidity, finishing long and mouth-watering. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2023
"New, fresh, bright and floral bouquet with aromas and flavours of red apple and ripe peach, a mix of light red berry fruits with some fresh and tart strawberry and cherry. Taut and youthful with a back bone of acidity and moderate complexity. Well made with best drinking from 2023 through end of summer 2026" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Jul 2023
A lovely light peach salmon colour. Strawberry and cherries with floral notes. Strawberry and cream with a lovely dry finish.
The grapes for this wine are grown on the Tietjen vineyard in the Hexton Hills appellation of Gisborne. The Dijon 777 clone are carefully managed to produce a quality table wine. With only three canes laid down for the season, these lower yields ensure early ripeness with intense fruit flavours.
The juice for the Rosé was syphoned from the Pinot Noir and cold soaked prior to fermentation once the colour and flavour had reached the perfect intensity for this style. After slight clarification, the juice was fermented at cool temperatures to maximise red berry flavours and floral aromatics in the final wine. The use of gentle fining agents prior to filtration has ensured that the resulting wine has silken texture and is brimming with flavours and aromas.
Food Pairing: A lovely aperitif or enjoy with summer salads and seafood.
