WineOrbit.com Sam Kim 93 Points | Intensely aromatic and instantly appealing, the wine shows passionfruit, feijoa, fresh fig and lemon peel aromas. The palate delivers terrific fruit power and vibrancy, wonderfully supported by juicy acidity. Fabulously expressed and deliciously drinking.

Established in 1978, the Rose family estate vineyards are situated on the banks of the Wairau River (pronounced “why-row”). Pioneers in the Marlborough region, the Rose family selected vineyard sites along the banks of the Wairau River to grow their grapes. This river provides the wineswith a distinct sense of place and the river’s stratification is the inspiration for the new label design across all the brand’s varietals. The 2020 Sauvignon Blancissourced from six family vineyards across the Marlborough region, all located on the northern side of the Wairau Valley: Home Block, Riverlore, Rapaura, Longbend, The Angler, and Burnside.

Wonderfully expressive with fresh, mouthwatering acidity. Notes of passionfruit, peach, lemon and grapefruit. Finishes clean, dry and refreshing.  Sourced from six family vineyards across the Marlborough region, all located on the northern side of the Wairau Valley: Home Block, Riverlore, Rapaura, Longbend, The Angler, and Burnside.
