The Vineyard
Our Brightwater Vineyard is exceptionally stony with free draining soils, which is very hard on the farm equipment. The large stones however are vital for holding the warmth of the Nelson sun and for ripening the grapes. Lively fruit characters are evident in fruit harvested from this block.
Winemakers Note
The fruit in our 2021 Seifried Nelson Pinot Rosé comes from our Brightwater vineyard parcels of fruit which were picked incrementally in March 2021 at peak of flavour and phenolic ripeness. Drained juice was settled, warmed and inoculated for a clean, crisp fermentation to retain lovely fruit characters. The wine had a brief period on yeast lees before being stabilised and bottled in August 2021.
Tasting Note
The 2021 Seifried Nelson Pinot Rosé has a delightful rose-salmon colour. The nose is floral and vibrant, while the palate is smooth and full showing layers of peach, raspberry, and cranberry. Gorgeous for sipping.
