Blackenbrook Pinot Rosé 2023

$19.99

5 Stars, Michael Cooper 

We love this for the money, look and taste. One of the more 'fruity' Roses in store. 

"Ripe and fruity bouquet, aromas of red tea and melon, raspberry flesh and yellow plums. On the palate a dry wine with an intense core of red berry fruit, red apple skin and tropical fruit tea. Fine fruit tannins and a backbone of acidity enhance the flavours, suggest a light saline quality and a refreshing plush finish." Cameron Douglas MS 93/100

Instantly appealing, the 2023 vintage was made from estate-grown, hand-picked Pinot Noir, fermented and lees-aged in stainless steel tanks.

"Full, bright pink, it is packed with vigorous, berryish, gently spicy flavours, leading to a finely balanced, appetissingly crisp, dry finish." 5 Stars Michael Cooper, michaelcooperwines.com

"Moderately deep-tinted rosé with an attractive rose petal scent. A modicum of sweetness is balanced by refreshing acidity to give a dry-ish finish. Attractive, food friendly wine that should be served well chilled. " Drink 2023–2026 92/100 Bob Campbell

"Blackenbrook is a small Nelson producer making characterful wines that capture the region’s intense fruit purity. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, this is an attractive rose red colour with lots of watermelon, plum jam, strawberry and light spice aromas and flavours. Just off-dry with a juicy silky freshness."
