Description
The wine has a lovely pink hue and has attractive floral aromas. It is made in an off dry style. The vibrant, fruity, berry-driven nose follows on to a medium-bodied palate. The finish is pleasing and dry.
The fruit was crushed directly to press and pressed without skin contact. After cold settling, the juice was fermented using yeasts that enhance the development of fruity wine aromas. We bottled early to make a fresh, vibrant style. A light fining and careful stabilization has kept intact the full fruit aromas and fresh mouth feel. The components selected for the blend were chosen with ripe berry flavours (without herbaceous characters) and have given a soft finish.
The grapes for this Rosé were selected off Gimblett Gravels Hawke’s Bay vineyards. The fruit was carefully thinned to avoid over cropping and leaves around the bunches were removed to ensure ripe flavour development. The fruit was harvested at optimum sugar levels to make a Rosé with good balance and attractive flavour profile. The wine is made from 93% Syrah, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc.
