Hunter's Marlborough Rosé 2014
5 Stars, No. 1 & Best Buy
(Cuisine, NZ Rosé Tasting, Oct 2014)
For the second year in a row, Hunter's Rosé has been in the top 3 at the Cuisine Rosé tasting. To say we are happy with the result would be an understatement. To be at the top once is fantastic, to be on top two years running is incredible. Out of a total 85 Rosés tasted, Hunter's Rosé was the only one to receive 5 Stars.
100% Pinot Noir - we tend to a section of Pinot Noir vines specifically for this Rosé. The winemaking team have done a great job creating this Rosé style. The colour is wonderful, the flavours are beautiful - it is a perfect summer wine.
John Belsham and his team of Cuisine judges commented:
"Vibrant pink in the glass with hints of mauve, the pick of our rosé crop was described by John Belsham as having "presence and personality". Delicate red berry and floral scents lead the way to a pristine, refreshing mouthful that starts with a dab of sweetness, yet finishes dry. All that is engaging and attractive about rosé is encapsulated in this bright, crisp wine. The panel's suggested food match was fresh crayfish."
