1. Rabbit Ranch Rosé
Given it’s the Year of The Rabbit, it’d be rude not to add this to our line-up. This Otago offering is as effervescent in the mouth as it looks in the bottle, with a dry, mineral finish and flavours of raspberry, dried herbs and spice. Hop to it!
2. Jules Taylor “The Jules” Rosé
We’ve fallen hard for this watermelon-hued rosé, which also has watermelon flavours in the finish, alongside berries and cream. A sweet drink that’s magnificent married with shellfish and seafood.
3. Villa Maria Private Bin Rosé
A wonderfully affordable drop with a touch of spice, along with strawberry and red fruit. Deliciously smooth, you’ll be coming back for another glass – or bottle!.
4. Selaks Taste Collection Berries & Cream Rosé
A Hawke’s Bay creation boasting ripe, juicy berry flavours and a light, creamy finish – much like strawberries and cream in the summertime. A perfect match with seafood, light salads or a barbecue.
5. Deutz Marlborough Cuvée Rosé
Just like the bottle and branding, this is an elegant drop that is an ideal ‘bring along’ to a party or backyard gathering – it also makes a pretty special gift or hen’s party kick-starter! Flavours of fresh berry fruit create a memorable first impression, with a hint of brioche and biscuit in lingering mouthfeel.

6. Squealing Pig Rosé
With a beautiful pale salmon colour, this is a crisp, silky smooth style of sparkling rosé made with pinot noir and chardonnay grapes. Serve chilled and enjoy anytime.
7. ROCKBURN STOLEN KISS Rosé
The sweet, frivolous and fruity side of Central Otago pinot noir grapes are bound up in this bottle of Stolen Kiss Rosé, and once they're unleashed its candy-floss and crème-brûlée aromas sashay into a flirtatious toffee-apple and simmering strawberry palate. Yep, we're salivating too.
8. Man O’ War Pinque
A light and dry style rosé, which is grown in a place that could be New Zealand's answer to the French Riviera. Man O' War produce stylish wines on Waiheke Island, and if you can’t get to the property itself the next best thing is picking up this bottle at your local Liquorland.
9. Hãhã Hawkes Bay Rosé
Did you know that Hãhã actually means “tasty” or “delicious” in Maori? Using quality merlot and malbec fruit from the sunny Hawke’s Bay region, perfect for this deliciously approachable rosé. Enjoy it nicely chilled with a summer picnic!
10. Church Road Gwen Rosé
Your go-to if you’re salivating for a subtle, elegant Rose´ in a bone-dry style. Flavours and aromas range from subtle red fruits and stone fruit, through to floral, guava, and herbal notes. Ideal as a refreshing aperitif, yet well suited to a range of lighter, fresher dishes.
