Seresin Zosia Pinot Noir Rosé 2022 2022

A truly charming and graceful Rosé that has been crafted to wholly represent a small, special plot of Pinot Noir within the Raupo Creek vineyard. Highly aromatic, brimming with classic Pinot Noir Rosé notes of wild berry fruits, and ripe orchard fruits. Exudes elegance and purity on the palate, yet is highly textural and layered. Finishes dry, with a refreshing acidity that creates tension and completes the wine.

Our clay rich Raupo Creek vineyard, farmed following organic and biodynamic principles is located in the centre of the Omaka Valley. This vineyard has a gentle north-west facing aspect and enjoys high sunshine hours and minimal rain.

Pristine Pinot Noir grapes, all from a single plot in the Raupo Creek vineyard, were hand-picked under cool morning conditions. The fruit was loaded directly into the press, gently pressed and settled overnight naturally, then racked to neutral oak barriques. Wild fermentation took place and the batch remained on full lees for three months after fermentation, prior to racking and a sulphur addition. As a result, partial malolactic fermentation has taken place, also wild. The wine was then blended and filtered, prior to bottling.
