Santé. Vintage Cuvee Technical Review Spring arrived bringing the usual frosts and cool temperatures yet warming as the season progressed and our precious tender buds were off to an excellent start. Summer presented warm settled weather to support excellent flowering and fruit set. We are delighted with the ripe tannin profile and varietal fruit intensity and anticipate very elegant and classical Central Otago wines. 100% Pinot Noir. The grapes for the Vintage Rosé were hand-harvested on the 14 March 2016. Bottled on the 14 November 2016, this exceptional wine was aged for 60 months on lees then riddled and disgorged by hand on-site. pH: 3.19 Total Acidity: 6.9g/l Alcohol: 12.5% Residual Sugar: 2g/l Limited Release of 900 Bottles 93 Points by James Suckling, jamessuckling.com (Oct 2022) 5 Stars by Yvonne Lorkin, Canva, NZME Regional Newspapers (OCT 2022) Download Tasting Note
