This Single Estate Marlborough Pinot Noir Rosé has vibrant aromas of red berry fruits with floral notes. The palate is fresh and lively with hints of strawberry and a long dry finish. 

Grapes were grown on Johnson Vineyard in Waihopai Valley – Omaka River terrace with alluvial stony silt loams, very well drained. Vertical shoot positioning, shoot and bunch thinning to bring out the best flavour and colour.

Another year of near perfect weather conditions. A warm spring allowed the vines to escape frost, while an above average rainfall lead to early flowering. Low rainfall throughout the summer and cooler temperatures were a perfect balance for the vines to mature with optimum flavour maturity levels.

Harvested at peak flavour maturity from their estate vineyard, Bell Block, directly in front of the winery. Gentle juice extraction achieved the perfect colour. The juice was then cold settled and fermented in stainless steel tanks.
