Wither Hills Early Light Rose 2022

Fruit for our Early Light range of wines is harvested early to capture optimum flavour ripeness whilst reducing the levels of naturally occurring sugar. This lower level of sugar means less alcohol is converted resulting in a lighter in alcohol style of wine. Fresh watermelon pink in colour with an enticing crushed ice blue hue, Early Light Rose perfumed aromas of wild strawberries and fresh raspberries, reminiscent of summer berries is refreshing in style at 9.5% alc/vol.

Strategically situated vineyards were chosen for this 100% Pinot Noir Rosé from the Wairau Valley. Fruit was harvested at optimum ripeness for a fresh vibrant style of Rosé. Berries were gently pressed, cold settled, racked and cool fermented with selected yeast strains to enhance the unique aromatics and flavors. After fermentation, the wine remained on light yeast lees to enhance palate feel and structure. The wine was then racked, blended, filtered, and bottled to retain & capture the lovely freshness of Marlborough Rosé.
