Tasting Notes
Roaring Meg Pinot Noir Rosé 2024 has a bouquet of lifted white floral and strawberry notes initially and blood orange and red cherry fruit behind. Bright, ripe blood orange and ruby grapefruit flowing into plush stonefruit on the mid-palate. Drier in style, this Rosé is elegant and fine with a long finish. Serve chilled for maximum enjoyment.
CELLARING POTENTIAL
Roaring Meg Pinot Noir Rosé is at its best within two years of release.
Vintage Notes
2024 continued a string of excellent vintages in Central Otago. We experienced a very warm and dry growing season before a wicked wind kicked in from November to January. While soil moisture was reaching drought levels, we managed to keep the vines vital, producing small concentrated berries and powerful wines with lovely acidity. With no rain during February we started harvest early on March 14. Conditions cooled toward the end of March with ripening slowing and the vintage complete by Anzac Day.
Pinot Noir grapes for this wine were harvested by a combination of hand picking and machine harvesting at the end of March. They were pressed quickly off skins to create and elegant and fresh wine. A range of aromatic yeasts were selected to highlight the varietal vibrancy of this early-picked Pinot Noir. The wine was blended and bottled immediately after vintage to capture the wine’s vibrancy and freshness.
Vegan friendly.
