EarthGarden Hawkes Bay Rosé 2021

This Organic Rosé from our Hawkes Bay Soler and Te Awa Vineyard's showcases summer provoking aromas of blood-orange, strawberry and watermelon. The palate is rich and moreish, finishing refreshingly dry.

The Hawkes Bay 2021 vintage followed a warm dry summer resulting in an early grape harvest, which has produced wines showing lovely crisp and vibrant flavours. Merlot grapes were harvested cool to protect the aromatics, gently pressed upon arrival at the winery and the clear juice is fermented in stainless steel using selected Biogro approved yeast strains. The wine is then left on its yeast lees for a closely monitored period of time to build palate weight without compromising freshness
