Pyramid Valley North Canterbury Rosé 2022 is a masterclass in finesse and purity. Its bouquet is a delicate interplay of floral aromatics, fresh strawberries, and the crisp nuance of red apple skin—all underpinned by a refined mineral core that speaks of its North Canterbury terroir.
On the palate, this rosé is satin-smooth, revealing superfine fruit tannins that frame its refreshing acidity. Hints of sea breeze salinity add complexity, while vibrant fruit notes mirror the bouquet in a harmonious display. The finish is long, clean, and mouthwatering. Bright, youthful, and irresistibly delicious, this wine is ideal for immediate enjoyment and will shine right through to the end of summer 2025.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "It's delicately expressed on the nose, showing apricot skin, orange peel, mixed spice and dried flower nuances, followed by a focused palate that's juicy and linear. Refreshing acidity provides structure and harmony, offering excellent drinking."
Candice Chow writes "This North Canterbury Rosé is made from old vine Pinot Noir fermented in seasoned oak; soft powdery phenolics flow with focused acidity and good energy, lending a dry, appetising finish."
Cameron Douglas MS writes "Few rosé wines can be labelled as elegant - yet this wine has a wonderful elegant bouquet with scents of flowers and strawberries, red apple skin and a core of minerality. Satin smooth as the wine touches the palate, super fine fruit tannins, refreshing and slightly saline with plenty of acidity and contrasting fruits flavours that reflect the bouquet. Bright, youthful and delicious. Best drinking from day of purchase through end of summer 2025."
The winery writes "Pale Salmon hue. Fresh, mineral nose with aromas of watermelon, strawberries and brioche. Clean salivating texture with flavours of watermelon and strawberry, supported by a rich creamy mouthfeel."
