This Rosé wine was drawn from 4 vineyards located around Renwick in the Wairau River Valley. Whilst all have their characteristics; they share the Wairau plains, gravel-rich, free draining and devigourating soil profile.

Our Rosé is a blend of Pinot Noir and Malbec. Each small parcel of fruit harvested in the cool of early morning, crushed/destemmed, then given a brief 4-6 hour cold soak to extract just enough “lipstick red” colour. The juice was cold settled and then cool fermented prior to blending and finishing for bottling in July.
