Critic Reviews
Pale pink pinot noir-dominant blend with subtle cherry, strawberry and toasty yeast autolysis flavours. Charming wine in a bone-dry style and with an ethereal texture and impressively lengthy finish. A serious fizz
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.

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.
