Since the start of grape growing in Marlborough, the little South Island New Zealand province has been constantly outstanding in its field.
It was in 1986 that Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc ‘leapt’ on to centre stage capturing international interest and becoming the focus for wine connoisseurs and consumer alike.
The news was all over the world and people started to notice this New World wine region and began to inquire as to what it was producing and why it was so good.
The Marlborough Sun range reflects this ‘news’ aspect of Marlborough grape growing and the creation of a new story with every wine is part of the way to share the news.
Expressive Sauvignon Blanc parcels were blended with a splash of Pinot Noir to craft some out of this world Rosé.
Machine harvested from Marlborough’s Lower Wairau Valley after a season of taste testing from the vigilant Winemakers.
After a quick trip to the winery, the Sauvignon Blanc grapes were gently pressed and cool fermented to lock in zesty citrus and tropical notes.
The Pinot Noir portion of this wine was held on skins to extract delicate pink hues before joining the remaining fruit in fermentation.
The result?
A refreshing Rosé that’s perfect for summer sipping.
Pour yourself a glass, kick back, and enjoy a taste of the Marlborough Sun!
