The palate has generous fruit but finishes crisp and refreshing. The 2023 growing season was unseasonably cool in Hawke's Bay which kept the Ros grapes fresh with good natural acidity.

This delicious Rosé has lovely hues of pink with copper undertones and displays an explosion of fresh strawberries and pink grapefruit supported by subtle baking spice. The palate has generous fruit but finishes crisp and refreshing.

The 2023 growing season was unseasonably cool in Hawke's Bay which kept the Rosé grapes fresh with good natural acidity. Harvesting early in the season meant the natural fruit flavour and freshness was preserved in the red grapes we use to make our Rosé.

This Rosé is made from predominantly Merlot (60%) along with other Hawkes Bay red varieties which add complexity and flavour to the wine. Gentle handling and pressing of the grapes resulted in juice with a beautiful pale shade of pink with copper hues and cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks has created a refreshing and vibrant wine.

Food Pairing: Best served chilled and enjoyed on warm summer days with a grazing platter and friends.
