NV Cloudy Bay Pelorus Rose
The Collective Review
Cloudy Bay’s glittering jewel. A fine example of elegance, finesse and style in a bottle. Like its twin, Pelorus Rosé is crafted using the méthode traditionnelle.
Bright, vivid purple-pink colour, with a gently toasty-bread bouquet revealing good bottle-developed complexity, with hints of strawberry and toffee apple. The palate is full and rich, round and smooth, at the same time refined and elegant. The harmony is outstanding, imparting freshness with softness and immediate approachability. A lovely wine.

Bright, vivid purple-pink colour, with a gently toasty-bread bouquet revealing good bottle-developed complexity, with hints of strawberry and toffee apple. The palate is full and rich, round and smooth, at the same time refined and elegant. The harmony is outstanding, imparting freshness with softness and immediate approachability. A lovely wine.
Pale pink/orange colour. Fresh, appealing Méthode with subtle cherry, strawberry and raspberry flavours together with oyster shell, bread crust and a hint of toast. A nice combination of youthful freshness with a savoury edge from bottle development.
Salmon orange color with aromas of strawberries, grapefruit, pomegranate and saltines. Creamy and bright with a medium body and soft bubbles. Lovely red fruit with a spicy hint coming through. Drink now.
A return to Majestic's range this winter along with the Pelorus Brut NV, the rosé doesn't carry a price premium, which is refreshing to see. A traditional-method Pinot Noir, this has oodles of crisp, fresh red berry fruit and fragrant rose hints, ripe strawberry and warm spices. Lingers in the mouth. Would be a treat with smoked salmon sandwiches.

Tasting Notes
Pelorus Rosé is the benchmark for New Zealand sparkling rosé wine, drawing on over 30 years of heritage from the original Pelorus. Crafted using the time-honoured méthode traditionnelle, Pelorus Rosé has reinforced the reputation of the original Pelorus with its elegance, finesse and complexity. Pelorus Rosé is smooth and elegant, with a pale salmon hue and brambly aromas. The nose is laden with raspberries, cranberries and wild strawberries, while red florals, rosehip and marzipan hover at the fringe. Baked quince, cranberry and brioche meet citrus notes on the palate, while its fine structure persists all the way to a soft, dry finish.
