Mud House Sub Region Marlborough Pinot Rosé 2018

Description

Delicate salmon colour in the glass. Fresh Summer strawberries and wild flowers. Juicy cherry and savoury length.

Sub Region: Burleigh. This sub region hugs the low terraces of the Taylor River. The soil profile is a combination of clay and silt soils and the traditionally cool area is a more suited to light, fragrant Pinot Noir.

At optimal ripeness, the Pinot Noir grapes were hand picked, then gently destemmed, followed by a week long cold soak. Each parcel was fermented using indigenous yeasts, then hand plunged. The wine was left on yeast lees for several weeks, then fined using traditional methods.
