“Easy to slake a thirst with this tangy, tart and juicy rosé. Hints of red berries, watermelon and rind with cinnamon and mint. The powder puff of acidity keeps this refreshing and pleasing in equal measure.”

“This is lovely, layered with pink grapefruit and citrus, sailing through to a cool clean finish. There’s an expansive, mouth-filling mousse and nice balance. The tangy lemon, thirst-quenching acidity is a highlight.”
