The story of Graham Nortons Rose

Graham Norton's Rosé is a New Zealand pink made with Invivo winemaker Rob Cameron, and Graham controls every aspect of the blending. It is made from a mix of grape varieties grown in several regions, and recent vintages have used fruit from Hawke's Bay, Gisborne and Marlborough.

Blending across regions is the point of the wine. The result is a pale pink rosé at a light 12 percent alcohol, built to be poured young and cold rather than kept.

In the glass it smells of muddled strawberries and watermelon, with a hint of raspberry. The palate is zingy and vibrant, with enough acidity to give it drive and keep the fruit from feeling sweet.

Serve it straight from the fridge. It suits a summer table: prawns or grilled fish, a bowl of hot chips, or a big salad with feta and tomatoes. It is just as happy on its own as the first bottle opened on a warm afternoon outside.
