Wooing Tree Central Otago Tickled Pink 2021 (375ml)

Description

Dessert, Raspberry, Sherbert

"This is enticing and immediately appealing on the nose, showing watermelon, candied orange, mango and subtle spice aromas, followed by a succulent palate displaying elegant sweetness and silky texture, well supported by bright acidity, making it deliciously appealing. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2023

"Bright, even, pale salmon pink with some depth. The nose is full; vibrant aromas of strawberry, cherry and stonefruit melded with rose. Medium-full bodied, sweet to taste, aromas of rose lead the palate with strawberry, cherry and stonefruit. Sweetness provides a round mouthfeel and lively acidity supported and balanced. This dessert wine is easy drinking with upfront fruit and a balanced sweet flow" Candice Chow, Raymond Chane Reviews, Aug 2022

It has attractive aromas of peach and raspberry on the nose. Intense flavours of strawberries, citrus, sherbet and a hint of tangelo on the palate.

100% Pinot Noir grapes were late harvested on 25th May 2021 allowing them time to ripen fully and produce a considerable amount of sugar. The juice was fermented in stainless steel to retain the varietal and fruit characteristics. The ferment was then stopped to retain a residual sugar of 113g/l.

Food Pairing: This wine is a perfect match with desserts or cheeses and can be enjoyed on its own.
