"It's beautifully restrained and elegant, showing Gala apple, lemon pith, golden apple and subtle spice aromas on the nose, followed by a delicately fruited palate that's finely textured and lingering with savoury nuances" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2022
"Bright, very pale blush pink, even colour throughout. The nose is elegant and gently full, packed with aromas of rose petals, strawberry, raspberry and a suggestion of herb. Medium-bodied, aromas of strawberry and raspberry intermixed with a touch of watermelon and rose petals. The fruit is juicy and clean, flows on a fresh acid line. Delicate, powdery phenolics adorn a silky palate. This vibrant, red-fruited Pinot rosé possesses crisp acidity and a smooth mouthfeel" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Sep 2022
Vibrantly pink, with inviting aromas of strawberries and red berry fruit. Each glass is loaded with fresh summer berries, watermelon and stone fruit, with a delightfully refreshing finish. Chill and enjoy!
The 2022 growing season began with significant rain, marking the end of three years of drought in Marlborough. A period of warmth in early December produced a welcome and better than average fruit-set. In late February we had a couple of significant rains which replenished the soil moisture levels that had reduced during summer.
During the two weeks that followed we had cool days and nights which meant the acidities remained on the high side. Harvest coincided with the peak of New Zealand’s Omicron outbreak, which put some pressure on staffing. Excellent teamwork meant we were able to harvest our fruit as it was ready, retaining vibrant acidity and concentrated fruit flavour. After harvesting, selected parcels of Pinot Noir fruit were allowed extended skin contact for 12 hours, for colour and flavour, before being gently pressed. The juice was cool fermented in stainless steel to capture all the vibrant fruit flavours and aroma.
Our Reserve wines are expertly crafted from selected vineyards with impressive flavour concentration and palate weight. Each bottle of Rapaura Springs tells the story of a lifetime. Of water and wine, and of generations of family working with nature. Our label depicts the rocky aquifer at our home vineyard, and the pristine springs that connect it to our land. We make exceptional wines that reflect our remarkable landscapes, pure waterways and passionate people.
