Long considered one of Central Otago's very best Rosés the new vintage of Amisfield has arrived and she's a beauty. With good concentration of cherry and berry fruit and a touch of spice, it has lovely weight and gentle creaminess on the palate with a lick of minerality giving it freshness and length.
Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"Vibrant and electric pink in colour, the nose exudes florals, rose water and bright red berries. The palate combines juicy watermelon and crunchy fresh pomegranate, delicately balancing a succulent mid palate with a refreshing dry finish."
4 Stars Cuisine Rosé Tasting, December 2023 (2023 Vintage)
"Youthful and bright with high-toned aromas of strawberries, watermelon and peaches on the nose. The palate is equally vibrant with citrus-blossom flavours. The wine is excellently structured with a juicy mid palate, lovely avidity and a delicious finish."

Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2022 (2022 Vintage)
"Fabulous natural hues of red, pink and peach – leading to aromas and flavours of raspberry and red cherry, roses and a chalky mineral quality. Crisp, fruity, refreshing and dry with a fine chalky tannin mouthfeel, refreshing and salivating acidity with core fruit flavours finishing with a red apple bite. Perfect for summer 2023 and 2024."
91/100 Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review (2022 Vintage)
"Reasonably deep-coloured rosé with quite intense strawberry and cream, oyster shell, and raspberry flavours supported by tangy acidity that helps drive a lengthy finish. Bold, flavoursome rosé."
