COAL PIT PINOT NOIR ROSÉ 2024

Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"This elegant Provence-style Rosé is dry and palest shell-pink, rose quartz in colour. Fragrant aromas of fresh strawberries, white peach, and cherry blossom are intertwined with hibiscus and rose water revealing an intriguing and savoury edge.

Flavours of crushed wild berries and summer citrus envelop a delicate crushed schist minerality that pays homage to the influence of terroir. The elegance of this light-bodied style Rosé is well balanced with complex textural layers that add palate weight. Subtle end notes of brioche and hot cross buns bring a decadent depth to the finish of this beautiful wine.
The Huia feather label embodies Chris Heaphy’s recent works, with a Toitoi or South Island Tomtit bird depicted on the back. A refined and versatile wine with or without food; the perfect accompaniment to a leisurely afternoon in the sun."

5 Stars & 95/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, October 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Exquisite and finely scented, the wine shows pomegranate, crunchy apple, lemon peel and subtle spice aromas on the nose, leading to a brilliantly focused palate that's juicy and linear. Wonderfully framed by bright acidity, finishing splendidly long and elegant. At its best: now to 2027."
