Here’s an Elephant everyone in the room will want to talk about! Elephant Hill Tempranillo Rose
Elephant Hill are a Hawke’s Bay producer with class and style. They set the bar sky high when it comes to quality and that might be something to do with their German owners, Roger and Reydan Weiss, that spare no expense in running this state of the art winery located on the stunning Te Awanga coastline, and boast one of the finest winery restaurants in NZ!
So when the Elephant crew came to craft a Rose there was only going to be one outcome – all class baby!
Made from hand picked Syrah and Viognier (“vee-on-yay”) grapes from their coastal Te Awanga vineyard, whole bunch pressed with absolutely no time on skins. The result is a floral, fragrant Rose full of red berry fruit flavour.
If you’re in The Bay area swing by the winery and enjoy a glass with an antipasto platter, soaking in their stunning surroundings – you’ll feel like a million dollar VIP!
