Margrain En Rose Methode Traditionelle Rose Brut 2019

Margrain Vineyard’s En Rose Méthode Traditionnelle Brut 2019 is a meticulously crafted sparkling wine from Martinborough, New Zealand. Established in 1992, Margrain Vineyard is a family-owned winery known for producing high-quality wines with a focus on minimal intervention and a commitment to showcasing the unique terroir of the region.

The En Rose Brut 2019 is produced using the traditional method, with the wine undergoing secondary fermentation in the bottle and aging on lees for an extended period. This process imparts complexity and depth to the wine, resulting in a refined effervescence and a creamy mouthfeel. The wine is crafted from a blend of Pinot Noir and other varietals, though specific proportions are not disclosed.

In the glass, the En Rose Brut 2019 presents a pale, onion-skin hue. The nose is delicate, offering aromas of crushed strawberry and raspberry, complemented by fresh, bready lees notes. On the palate, the wine is mouth filling with a creamy texture and flavours suggesting cherry, green apple, roasted hazelnuts, and baguette crust. It is a rich, flavourful sparkler in a bone-dry style, supported by assertive acidity.

This sparkling wine pairs well with a variety of dishes, including meaty and oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, swordfish, monkfish, and tuna. Its versatility and elegant profile make it suitable for both celebratory occasions and refined dining experiences.
