SOHO Westwood Waiheke Island Rosé 2025

Description

Dry, Floral, Strawberry

"Pristine and delicately fragrant on the nose with aromas of sweet strawberry, Gala apple, white flower, and lemon zest. The palate delivers brilliant focus and a linear mouthfeel, beautifully supported by vibrant acidity, making it mouth-watering and highly appealing. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2025

"Bright, even, very pale blush pink. The nose is fresh and full, with aromas of strawberry, stonefruit and rose. Medium-light bodied, aromas of strawberry, melded with peach, raspberry and rose. The fruit is fresh with excellent depth of flavour, crisp acidity carries subtle meaty nuance and a smooth palate to a refreshing finish" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Nov 2025

"A very light and delicate hue of pink and salmon leads to a bold bouquet of ripe white fleshed fruits and a lick of raspberry leaf. Mineral, white spice and stone add depth and complexity to both the nose and palate. Fresh fruit flavours follow through on the palate with apple and citrus then raspberry leaf and white pepper. Crisp, dry, well made and ready to enjoy with food or as an aperitif. Best drinking from late 2025 through 2027" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2025

An ornate Rose with edgy, artistic flair. Hand-crafted from Merlot and Syrah grown on our Onetangi Vineyard, Westwood will take control of your senses. Pale Blush in colour, with a vibrant blue hue, this Rose commences with raspberry, pomegranate and rhubarb on the Nose. Splatters of liquorice, aniseed and pink peppercorns provide a savoury dimension to both the Nose and Palate. A hint of sumac spice and a seaweed like salinity further add to the complexity. Possessing serious length, Westwood is both tempting and invigorating with a mouth-wateringly delicious dry finish. Chic in colour, moderate in alcohol, gorgeously decadent and a just a little fiery. Get in line Darling.
