It wouldn't be Summer without a glass of Black Barn Rosé. A dry Provençal style that is clean and crisp with characters of Summer berries including strawberries and raspberries.

Montepulciano | Cabernet | Sangiovese
This wine commemorates Concetta Lombardi who we regard as ‘The Godmother’ of Black Barn Vineyards. Concetta settled in Havelock North from Ischia in 1947 under her Kiwi name, Tina Green. Along with her husband Bill they established Lombardi Wines.

In 1994, as leaseholders of the land and in acknowledgement of Tina, we planted five rows in the Italian varieties of Sangiovese and Montepulciano. This is a stunning Italian blend celebrating a proud Italian woman whom like this wine, also remained proudly and
staunchly Italian.

An intense mouth-filling wine with dark fruit characters and texture.  Pepper, cedar oak spice and tobacco notes liven the solid aromas of the fruit, especially dark-flesh plums.

Luscious tannins fill the mouth, blending into a strong wine of remarkable fruit and oak characters. Grapes are 100% estate grown then basket pressed and aged in oak barrels. The most robust of our three premiums wines from 2020.

Together with the Imagination Gin makers, the Black Barn winemaking team chose some tightly grained and lightly toasted French oak barriques which were used in the production of our Syrah. Back in the distillery they were filled with the highest quality triple distilled dry gin and let time and nature do its thing.

The result is an exquisite gin with a vibrant fruit nose and a hint of toffee and cinnamon. The initial sweet spice on the palate gives way to a soft piney oak body and a lingering dry spice finish.

Recommended to be had neat, or with antipodes sparkling water.
