Indian Summer Rose – Hawkes Bay, New Zealand

Sometimes you just need a magnum of rosé in your life right?

I actually was sent this sample bottle last year (thank you Indian Summer) but I couldn’t bear to watch Mr Spittoon drink it without me while I was pregnant.

Indian Summer Rosé is made in the Hawkes Bay, in New Zealand. It’s an interesting blend of Viognier, Pinot Gris, Cinsault and Merlot grapes. And it’s made in a super smashable dry style.

It’s a pale peach shade in the glass with strawberries and herbaceousness rising from the glass. It’s incredibly refreshing on the palate with a yummy lick of orange citrus.

This wine was sent to me as a sample, I was under no obligation to post about it.

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!
