Te Kairanga Estate Martinborough Pinot Noir Rosé 2022
- Dry style
- Strawberry
- Cherry
- Creamy
Fresh, ripe aromas of strawberry, cherry flow to a creamy texture on the palate with pops of red berry fruit. Dry in style, our 100% Pinot Noir Rosé is crisp and refreshing.
Under the direction of Chief Winemaker, John Kavanagh, our winemaking philosophy places a premium on the character of each vineyard. Our 2022 Pinot Noir Rosé is made from Abel and 777 clone fruit selected from our Spring Rock Vineyard,
A compact vintage due to unsettled weather. We saw budburst early in August along with the usual Spring frosts in Martinborough. An early glimpse of Summer resulted in favourable flowering temperatures and ripening for the remainder of the month. From February the rain set in, marking it as one of the wettest on record. A challenging harvest began in March and ended in April.
Fruit was gently pressed on arrival to the winery and cool fermented in stainless steel to maintain its fresh flavour. Pressing was very gentle to avoid the pickup of too much colour from the skins. A smaller portion (13%) was fermented in old French oak puncheons to add extra texture and complexity to the wine. The wine was aged on light lees then blended and bottled.
Established in 1984, Te Kairanga is an important part of the Martinborough wine story. Our home vineyards are planted on land that was originally owned by the founding father of Martinborough, John Martin. While our land is steeped in history, our winemaking is very much focused on the future.
Food Pairing: A perfect match for a sunny afternoon platter of charcuterie, crostini and grilled Mediterranean vegetables. Vegan friendly.
