Ingrid Groiss 'Hasenhaide' Rose 2023

Hasenhaide means "garden of the hares", which is the name of the vineyard that Ingrid Groiss sublime Rosé comes from. The wine is a blend of Pinot Noir & Zweigelt. We love the delicate salmon pink colour and seductive nose of fresh strawberries and ripe cherries. The juicy fruit on the palate marries beautifully with a stony minerality that gives the wine great freshness. It goes without saying that we are massive fans of Ingrid and her wines, and we are so pleased to bring the Rosé into our ever-growing range, even though it runs out every year!

Describing herself as passionate, emotional and determined, this pretty much says it all about Ingrid Groiss and these are the sort of character traits I’d expect to find in a young wine maker who modernised their parent’s winery. Having lived the corporate life with Coca-Cola in her younger years, Ingrid returned to her wine-making roots in Weinviertel and set about producing fantastic wines from the vineyards her gran had planted some 50 years ago. Ingrid’s wines have a great purity to them and the complexity of her Gruner Veltliners is quite amazing. The wines are all certified organic now and they get better with every vintage. It’s a real pleasure to work with Ingrid and her wines, we love them!
