This is a bubbly that just feels like summer in a glass. Fresh strawberry and raspberry flavours lead the way, with a hint of melon and citrus keeping things lively. It’s light, crisp, and refreshing, with a soft texture and a fine, delicate bead. The colour is a beautiful pale pink that makes it as pretty to look at as it is to drink.

Perfect for sipping on its own, but we love it alongside salmon canapés, fresh Wairarapa crayfish, or a bowl of summer fruit.

Vineyard

The fruit was harvested nice and early in pristine condition with good acidity and ripe flavours. This Brut Rose is made from a mix of Pinot Noir clones sourced from the Matahiwi Estate vineyard in the Wairarapa, which is sited on free draining stony gravels north of Masterton. The crop was kept low and well exposed, to ensure even fruit ripening and optimal flavour development.
