Description
Description
A premium chillable Pinot Noir made for Europe - secured as final stock at exceptional case value.
Matahiwi Estate Chilled Rouge
The red wine between rosé and Pinot Noir
Some wines need explaining because they’re unusual.
This is one of them.
Chilled Rouge is made from premium Wairarapa Pinot Noir, but it isn’t designed to drink like a traditional red. It’s lighter, brighter and deliberately refreshing - made to be served cold, straight from the fridge.
Think of it as the bridge between rosé and Pinot Noir.
You get the cherry and raspberry fruit of Pinot, the freshness of rosé, and the smooth, easy finish of a modern chillable red.
Why you might like this
You’ll probably love Chilled Rouge if you enjoy:

Chilled Rouge is made from premium Wairarapa Pinot Noir, but it isn’t designed to drink like a traditional red. It’s lighter, brighter and deliberately refreshing - made to be served cold, straight from the fridge.
Think of it as the bridge between rosé and Pinot Noir.
You get the cherry and raspberry fruit of Pinot, the freshness of rosé, and the smooth, easy finish of a modern chillable red.
Why you might like this
You’ll probably love Chilled Rouge if you enjoy:
- rosé, but want something with a little more depth
- Pinot Noir, but prefer it soft, juicy and not too serious
- Beaujolais or lighter reds served slightly chilled
- reds with low tannin, bright fruit and a refreshing finish
- discovering wines that feel different without being difficult
It’s dry, smooth and fruit-led - not sweet, not heavy, and not oaky.
What it tastes like
Fresh strawberry and raspberry aromas lead into bright cherry, gentle spice and a cool, refreshing finish.
Serve it chilled and the wine becomes even more lifted: juicy, clean and vibrant, with soft tannins and a smooth Pinot Noir core.
This is red wine with the refreshment turned up.
The story behind the value
Chilled Rouge was originally created for a major European supermarket programme, where premium-looking, chillable reds have become a serious growth category.
The wine had to look the part.
It had to taste polished.
And it had to be immediately understandable to modern wine drinkers.
Matahiwi Estate has now strongly supported the clearance of the final stock, allowing us to offer it at exceptional case value.
So yes — the price is sharp.
But this is not a cheap wine story.
It’s a rare final-parcel opportunity on a beautifully packaged, premium Wairarapa Pinot Noir made for an international retail programme.
