Commercial description
A beautiful ros? ? crisp and dry, and packed full of ripe red fruit ? great for a relaxing, sunny afternoon.
The unique terroir, where the Stoneleigh vineyards lie, de nes the wine?s independent qualities. Located on the northern side of the Wairau Valley, in close proximity to Marlborough?s main river, the Wairau, the vignerons have located the vineyards on deep, infertile gravel beds covered in smooth ?sunstones?. These sunstones re ect the sun?s heat during the day, assisting ripening, whilst cool nights maintain intense fruit avours. These factors combine to produce a wine with its own unique ?place?.
The winemaker has harvested the fruit at peak intensity looking for both fresh and ripe fruit properties. By minimising winemaking intervention, the wine is able to express perfectly its unique origin.
The grapes were machine harvested on the the 22nd and 27th March. The fruit was crushed directly to a Bag press where we managed to extract just enough colour for this delicate fruit driven style of wine. The must was then gently pressed and the juice settled. The clean juice was then racked and fermented at cool temperatures using aromatic yeast to retain the varietal essence of the Pinot Noir grape.
Alc 13%
