THE REAL REVIEW
'Serious & Dry'
Score: 94****
Ranked #6 of 73 2025 Rosés from NZ.
Stephen Wong MW

"Set high above the Ngaruroro River in Mangatahi, Hawke's Bay, Rod and Emma Easthope's Home Block vineyard yields beautiful Syrah and even more remarkably, some of that fruit makes it into this top-notch rosé.

Long, slow press cycles and enrichment on lees for eight months has resulted in a seriously age-worthy, dry rosé which punches well above its weight in power and intensity.

Light orange-pink. A subtle hint of flint and white pepper greets the nose, borne on a voluminous base of ripe apricot and stone-fruit. The palate is still very youthfully closed and angular, but under the grainy tannins lies a core of intense, complex fruit ranging from persimmon and apricot kernel to blueberry and mulberry, displaying palate-staining concentration and fantastic length.

Significantly more powerful than typical rosé yet tapering down to a bone-dry finish with a cool, gravelly minerality, this will blossom and expand in bottle beautifully over the next few years."

Pruning is now complete! Decisions and cuts have been made for the 2027 vintage!
Rod and Emma have pruned every vine in the vineyard. We started with Riesling then through the Gamay, Pinot Noir, Syrah and have just finished with the Chardonnay.
Every vine is different, therefore decisions have to be made at each vine to ensure we receive the best fruit the vine will have to offer.
Bring on 2027!

A few tastings in Auckland. New releases from the 2025 are a hit. 'Two Terraces' Chenin Blanc and 'Home Block' Chardonnay start the line-up. Precise, pure and full of expression.

Last week we had Ian & Linda Quinn from Two Terraces Vineyard for a tasting in our barrel cellar and new tasting room.

We tried our 2026 Chenin Blanc from concrete egg, along with the Gamay and Pinot Noir straight from barrel. It’s always interesting to share wines at this stage and to talk through the season, the vineyard, and how each vintage is shaping in the glass.

We spent some time in our new tasting space, tasting through our bottled 2025 wines. A relaxed visit, with good conversation about wine, growing, and the work behind each vintage.
