Known Unknown Pinot Noir Rose 2024

Known Unknown has earned a strong following for wines that feel alive - clean natural energy, precision, and a refusal to overwork the fruit. Their 2024 Pinot Noir Rosé is a perfect example of why the brand has become a cult favourite.

Sourced from organic vineyards in Manutuke, this rosé opens with aromas of red and yellow peach, rose petal, red fruit tea, and a flinty, leesy edge. Cameron Douglas MS (89 Points) highlights the natural, savoury layers: saffron, subtle reduction, and mineral tension.

The palate is bone-dry yet creamy across the mid-section, supported by a crunchy acid line that keeps everything bright and refreshing. Strawberry, rhubarb, and stonefruit tones lift the finish, giving both interest and purity.
