Ara Marlborough Sauvignon Rosé

Within the heart of Marlborough lies our flagship vineyard, in the lower Wairau Valley. A highly sought-after and finite wine region, the Wairau Valley is an ancient river bed nestled between two mountain ranges and bordered by Cook Strait.

Vineyards in the valley range from cooler, drier inland sites, to stony, early-ripening sites, to sea-breeze moderated coastal sites. Soils are more gravelly to the north nearer the riverbed. Within this region, wines reflect the individual vineyard and producer strengths but all have the hallmark pure fruit intensity and body. This gives us incredible scope to honour the individual vineyard and unique vintage our wines have come from.
