Toi Toi New Marlborough Sara's Rose 2018 (6 x 750mL) NZ

Description:

Viculture and Winemaking

The 2018 vintage will be remembered as one of the warmest on record, with conHnual hot days throughout February and March and rain coming just before and during harvest. A very unusual harvest, as the Clutha Pinot Noir is normally the last to be picked, this year, due to unseasonably warm condiHons the fruit was the first of the vines.

We picked the grapes when the flavours were at opHmum, to ensure we preserved the fruit flavours in the wine. We used a select de-stemmer harvester to soBly handle the fruit. Once pressed off skins, the juice was then fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks with selected yeast strains to preserve the inherent delicate fruit flavours. Following fermentaHon, the wine was aged on light yeast lees to increase palate weight and complexity before it was bobled for enjoyment.

Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

wner of Toi Toi, Sara Joyce, loves her Provençal style Rosé, which is her “go to” drink. She asked Toi Toi winemaker Tim Adams to craB a New Zealand style Provençal Rosé and this wonderful wine has resulted. With the colour of light salmon hues and beauHful aromas of red berry fruits, mandarin and floral notes this wine is refreshing and clean and leaves you wanHng more. The flavour abounds with summer berry fruits, orange citrus and with a hint of yellow plum showing through. It is mouth filling with a sweet mid palate, great length and finishes clean and crisp.

Sara says, “My Rosé complements my strawberry salad with pastrami and salted pistachios beauHfully, enhancing the lovely soB summer fruit characterisHcs of the wine".
