Overview
Cloudy Bay Pelorus Rosé
Pelorus Rosé is the benchmark for New Zealand sparkling rosé wine, drawing on over 30 years of heritage from the original Pelorus. Crafted using the time-honoured méthode traditionnelle, Pelorus Rosé has reinforced the reputation of the original Pelorus with its elegance, finesse and complexity.
Tasting Notes:
The Pelorus Rosé is smooth and elegant. The pale salmon hue and brambly aromas reveal its beginnings in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. You'll find the nose is laden with raspberries, cranberries and ripe wild strawberries, while red florals, rosehip and marzi-pan hover at the fringe.
The entry is gentle, with mouth-filling characters of baked quince, cranberry and brioche. Soft citrus notes bring freshness and ba-lance to the palate, while its fine structure persists all the way to a soft, dry finish.
Key Vineyards:
The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes in Pelorus Rosé come from a selection of vineyards planted in the warm stony soils close to the winery. These hold the ideal conditions for the balance of ripeness and acidity required for our signature sparkling wine.
Winemaking:
Pelorus is made using the méthode traditionnelle. The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes are whole-bunch pressed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, where the wine also goes through malolactic conversion. The wine is aged en tirage for a minimum of 24 months.
Several different clones of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are used in the vinification of Pelorus Rosé. All grapes are whole-bunch pressed, and the juice is settled for 48 hours before being racked from the solid lees. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, where the wine also goes through malolactic conversion. Lees are stirred post-ferment to build texture.
Blending takes place in September, with some base wine being separated to become future reserve wine. In October, a proportion of older reserve wines are added to the blend. Following blending and stabilisation, the wine is aged en tirage for a minimum of 24 months. After disgorging, a small dosage is added to the wine before the cork is inserted.
Enjoy with:
Pelorus Rosé is a superb match for fresh shellfish such as oysters, clams and scallops. It lends itself well to creamy desserts like buttermilk pannacotta with strawberries, or grilled peaches with goats' curd and honey.
