"Fragrant, floral, soft and pure fruited bouquet. Aromas of peach and ripe apricot flesh, red papaya and sweet cherry. A quiver of texture with core fruit flavours reflecting the bouquet, very fine chalky tannins and backbone of acidity to carrying echoes of red fruits and a whisper of white spice. Balanced, very well made, pure and delicious. Best drinking from 2024 through end of summer 2026."

The TWR team wanted to make a Rosé that reflected a classic, dry, savoury style and was based on Pinot Noir.  Their favourite Rosés are lighter in colour and deliciously dry, with lifted fresh and floral fruit flavours, savoury undertones and ripe acid.  In keeping with the house style at Te Whare Ra they also wanted to make a wine that showed elegance and purity of fruit but one that also was fleshy and juicy with great texture and complexity.
