Te Kano Life Rosé 2022

$21.99

A must have Central Otago Rose for the dollars.  Beautifully presented, beautifully made and beautifully priced. 

Pale salmon in colour, this dry Rose shows aromas of pink grapefruit, watermelon and peach. An initial burst of fresh watermelon and raspberry leads into a crunchy medley of pink grapefruit, red apple and passionfruit. A tightly poised, powerful and zesty rose, finishing fresh, dry and finely textured. Winery

"Bright, polished, aromatic and very youthful with a bouquet of fresh cherry flesh and strawberry, some cranberry and floral highlights. Just dry on the palate with a satin texture, fruit flavours that reflect the bouquet with intensity and freshness, a perfect line of acidity delivers freshness and robustness. Fruit flavours tend to strawberry then red apple and cherry, there’s a light mineral quality with persistent flavours. A lovely example with best drinking from day of purchase through end of summer 2026." Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, November 2023 (2022 Vintage)

"The delicious 2022 vintage was made from Pinot Noir, estate-grown and hand-picked at Northburn, in the Cromwell Basin. Bright pink, it is mouthfilling and vibrantly fruity, with fresh acidity, deep watermelon, strawberry and spice flavours, and a dry (3.7 grams/litre of residual sugar), very harmonious, lingering finish. Drink now-2024." 5 Stars Michael Cooper (2022 Vintage)
