NZ Listener: NZ's Top Rosé Wines

The best rosé wines for a summer weekend

Michael Cooper writes that Kiwis are lapping up rosé as if it’s going out of fashion and Flaxmore’s ‘impressive’ Rosé 2023 is no exception, awarding it 5 STARS!

Flaxmore Moutere Nelson Rosé 2023 * * * * *

This impressive, well-priced wine was made from Pinot Noir estate-grown and hand-picked at Upper Moutere. Pale pink/slight orange, it is fragrant and lively with generous, ripe peach, strawberry and spice flavours, a hint of apricot and a dry, sustained finish. (13% alc/vol) $23
