Why Celebrate Rosé Day at French Peak?
Rosé has become one of the fastest-growing wine styles in New Zealand, celebrated for its freshness, versatility, and ability to bring people together — particularly through summer and special occasions. National Rosé Day is the perfect moment to pause, gather friends, and enjoy rosé in its many expressions.
At French Peak, rosé has been a defining part of our story for several years. To mark New Zealand Rosé Day, we’re celebrating with a one-day tasting experience that showcases three distinct expressions of rosé, each reflecting our Banks Peninsula vineyard and evolving winemaking approach.
Whether you’re a dedicated rosé lover, curious to try pét-nat for the first time, or simply looking for a laid-back summer experience in a beautiful vineyard, French Peak Rosé Day is designed to be enjoyed at your own pace, glass by glass.
Join us on New Zealand Rosé Day and celebrate rosé the French Peak way.

2023 Rosé
2024 Rosé
2025 Pét Nat Rosé
Our 2023 Rosé is elegant, dry and quietly expressive, showing delicate red berry flavours, gentle florals and a soft, savoury finish. It’s the kind of rosé that pairs effortlessly with food and rewards slower sipping.
If you enjoy a more classic, restrained style of rosé — less sweetness, more balance — this vintage is a favourite. It reflects both the cooler Banks Peninsula climate and our organic, small-batch approach.
Our award-winning 2024 Rosé is lively and expressive, with fresh strawberry, red cherry and a hint of citrus lifted by crisp natural acidity. It’s a rosé that feels effortless to drink and easy to love.
This vintage has quickly become a by-the-glass favourite — perfect for summer afternoons, celebrations and Valentine’s occasions where you want something fresh, joyful and polished in the glass.
Our Pétillant Naturel Rosé is a naturally sparkling wine, bottled mid-fermentation to capture gentle bubbles and vibrant freshness. It’s light, dry, and expressive, with fresh-berry notes and a lively, crisp finish.
Pét Nat wines are one of the fastest-growing styles worldwide, and this is a rare chance to try our bottle . Often the surprise favourite of the tasting, it’s ideal as an aperitif or shared first glass
