Notes
The Stratum 2008 Rose, made from Pinot Noir selected from our Glasnevin Vineyard in Waipara.
After a day on skins, 5% of the lightly coloured Pinot Noir juice was racked off (Saignee) and put through a cool fermentation. The fermentation was then stopped with a small amount of residual sugar to balance out the natural acid. The wine was then lightly fined, filtered and bottled.
The Stratum 2008 Saignee Rose displays fresh raspberry aromatics with a beautifully balance palate. A delightfully refreshing wine, best served well chilled. A wine to suit most occasions, to be enjoyed over the next two years.
