SOHO Westwood Waiheke Island Rosé 2021

Description

• Dry style
• Raspberries
• Blood orange
• Long, juicy finish

"This is seriously good; the elegantly perfumed bouquet shows raspberry, apricot, fresh fig and white floral notes, followed by a concentrated palate displaying excellent focus and flow. It's brilliantly structured by refined texture and bright acidity, finishing impressively long and linear. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2021

Off-dry to taste, macerated cherries & raspberries are offset by blood orange & pomegranate. A beautiful mouthfeel with real presence leads to a refreshingly long juicy finish. Mouth candy with mojo... this flaming Dame recruits the coolest of admirers.
