Matawhero Single Vineyard Gisborne Pinot Rosé 2020
- Dry style
- Strawberries
- Nectarine
- Floral
"Charming and beautifully fragrant, showing apricot, fresh apple, citrus peel and strawberry aromas, followed by an elegantly weighted palate delivering juicy fruit flavours and refreshing acidity. Elegant and immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2020
A lovely light pinky salmon colour. Perfumes of strawberries and cherries with floral notes. Flavours of subtle strawberries, nectarine and cream with a lovely dry finish.
The grapes for this wine are grown on the Tietjen vineyard in the Hexton Hills appellation of Gisborne. The Dijon 777 clone are carefully managed to produce quality table wine. With only three canes laid down for the season, these lower yields ensure early ripeness with intense fruit flavours.
The juice for the Rosé was syphoned from the Pinot Noir and cold soaked prior to fermentation once the colour and flavour had reached the perfect intensity for this style. After slight clarification, the juice was fermented at cool temperatures to maximise red berry flavours and floral aromatics in the final wine. The use of gentle fining agents prior to filtration has ensured that the resulting wine has silken texture and is brimming with flavours and aromas.
Food Pairing: A lovely aperitif or enjoy with summer salads and seafood.
