This Rosé brings a luscious blend of watermelon and summer raspberry aromas in a lovely pink hue. Creamy, rich and full of fresh red berry and yellow stone fruit flavours.
The 2019 growing season started well in Marlborough with good soil moisture and warm, even spring-like temperatures. Intermittent rainfalls resulted in cooler soil temperatures. Budburst was fairly even and spring growth saw steady development, with only a few minor frost events. Extended hot and dry periods after flowering resulted in low disease pressure and outstanding quality fruit.
Selected parcels of premium grown fruit were sourced from the family owned Blind River vineyard. Located south of the Awatere Valley, there is a strong coastal influence. Approximately 30% of the blended wine was grown at the Spring Creek Vineyard located right next to the winery and the remaining portion of was sourced from Redwood Pass and Riverlands growing areas of Marlborough.
Once harvested certain parcels of fruit were allowed extended skin contact for 12 hours before being gently pressed. The juice was fined, settled and racked clean for fermentation at cooler temperatures to capture vibrant fruit flavours.
At Summerhouse they collectively create, celebrate and share the best of the New Zealand lifestyle. Proudly made in Marlborough since 2005, they create distinctive wines for great company and sublime times, because it’s always Summer somewhere.
