Description

"The 2017 vintage is the best yet. A single-vineyard wine, from the eastern end of the Kawarau Gorge, it is pale pink, with a welcoming fragrance. Mouthfilling, it has strong, yet delicate, strawberry and spice flavours, hints of watermelon and apricot, a vague suggestion of sweetness, fresh acidity and a smooth, finely balanced finish. Delicious drinking during 2018" Michael Cooper, 2018

"Delicately scented rosé with rose petal, crushed strawberry and watermelon flavours. Dry with a backbone of gently peppery tannins. A pretty wine that's still fresh and lively - good drinking over the next year or so" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Sep 2018

"Wow! This wine is absolutely heaving with wild strawberries, creaming soda and watermelon-like wonder. So fresh and racy, yet showing incredible depth of flavour, it’s a stunner. Produced from a single vineyard at the eastern end of the Kawarau Gorge, this wine is elegant yet perky and plush and is by far the best rosé I’ve tasted in 2018" Yvonne Lorkin, Feb 2018

"Bright, light candyfloss pink with slight purple hues, paler edged. The nose is tightly bound wit fresh aromas of cherries and strawberries along with soft red florals, subtle nutty nuances and thirst-quenching minerals, unfolding hints of confectionary. Dry to taste and medium-bodied, the palate is vibrant and refreshing with bright cherry and strawberry fruit flavours along with nuts, confectionary and mouthwatering minerals. The mouthfeel is enlivened by crisp acidity and the wine flows along a very fine-textured line, leading to a lingering finish of florals and cherries. This is a crisp and refreshing, vibrant cherry and strawberry fruited dry rosé" Raymond Chan, May 2018

Light peach/onion skin colour in the glass with a soft nose full with savoury red floral, nectarine, pear and berries and a hint of gunsmoke notes. Dry, this has intense flavours of mineral-infused peaches, pears and white pepper. Bright fruit is balanced with fine, racy acidity and a subtle textural thread.
