"Benchmark Marlborough Rose, impressive purity & a pleasingly dry and lengthy finish" Bob Campbell MW
4 Stars: Bob Campbell MW
Aromas of strawberry, raspberry and plum are on the nose. Strawberry, mullberry and blackberry flavours combine with spice on the palate. This wine shows real savoury depth, length and weight balanced with fine acidity. This Rosé can be served lightly chilled. It is excellent as an aperitif or for al fresco dining.
The 2010 Huia Rosé is made from fully ripe Merlot and Malbec grapes sourced from the Brancott valley and a handful of Pinot Noir from the West Coast road region. The grape ratio is 90% Merlot, 8% Malbec and 2% Pinot Noir.
