- Medium-dry style
- Candy floss
- Toffee apple
- Flirtatious
"Bright, pale blush pink, even colour throughout. The nose is soft with a pure fruit expression, aromas of stonefruit, field berries, melded with rose petals, candy floss and a hint of spice. Medium-bodied, attractive aromas of peach, strawberries entwined with candy floss and delicate rose petals. The fruit has good ripeness balance, shows purity, balanced sweetness supported by vibrant acidity lends a refreshing finish. This is a taste of summer in a glass. Serve as an aperitif or match with spicy Asian fare over the next 2 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews
"Very floral, mineral and fruity bouquet, seductive and pretty with aromas of crunchy red cherry and tart raspberry. There’s a mix of red melon and tropical fruit punch suggestions. Salivating and fresh on the palate with a core of red berry and tropical fruit tea flavours, a mineral and super fine tannin texture delivers lovely mouthfeel and finesse. Great drinking from 2021 through 2024. Be quick - I expect this wine will sell out rather quickly" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2021
Once unleashed into your glass its candy-floss and crème-brûlée aromas shall sashay into a flirtatious toffee-apple and simmering strawberry palate smeared with cherry lip gloss. The sweetly frivolous and fruity side of Central Otago Pinot Noir is bound up in this bottle of Stolen Kiss Rosé.
100% Pinot Noir grown in various soils in the Central Otago region. Fruit was picked 1st April - 3rd May and was described by the Viticulturist as "very clean fruit easily picked".
The 2021 vintage was described by Winemaker Malcolm Rees-Francis as exceptional and expressive.
Grapes were cool fermented in stainless steel takes and inoculated.
