Cathy's Rose 2014
Raymond Chan wine review
Every two years Bannockbrae release a rosé named after Cathy, who “is the better looking half of the partnership”
Bannock Brae ‘Cathy’s’ Central Otago Rosé 2014 * * * * Light strawberry pink colour with some depth, and lighter purple hues on rim. The nose is fresh with an elegant core of strawberry fruit, and raspberries and cream, unfolding delicate floral and fruit pastille confectionary notes. Dry to taste and medium-bodied, fruit flavours of strawberries and cream, redcurrants and watermelon show with attractive clarity. Made from Pinot Noir fruit selected for the rosé style, given 3 days skin contact and cool-fermented to 13.5% alc. and 2.5 g/L RS. Winemaker: Sarah-Kate Dineen. 17.5/20 Dec 2014
