This complex Reserve Rosé is crafted in a dry style from premium Hawkes Bay grapes. With aromas of cherry blossom, it exudes lovely strawberry and raspberry flavours, complemented with subtle rock melon and red current notes. The palate is textural and full-bodied, yet delicate.
From a very tropical 2023 vintage, the grapes for this delightful Rosé have been selected from two of our premium vineyards in the Bridge Pā Triangle and Crownthorpe districts of Hawke’s Bay - on alluvial and red metal soils.
Harvested over two separate days, on arrival at the winery, the grapes were crushed and immediately pressed off the skins to yield a delightfully pale blush juice that was cold-settled and lightly fined. After racking, the juice was transferred to a stainless steel tank for fermentation with selected yeasts, which nurtured the vibrant fruit characters and structure of each parcel. At the completion of fermentation the wine was chilled to preserve optimal flavour and aroma. To best preserve the wine’s fine structure and flavours, it was lightly fined, filtered, and then bottled on the 14th of August 2023 under screwcap closure.
Food Pairing: Fresh and vibrant, enjoy on its own or with salmon and a beetroot, snow pea and goat cheese salad.
