“It’s juicy and bright, all citrus and green apple, and the texture is gently chalky, offering a finish of excellent length with a lime and tonic aftertaste. Lots of crunch and interest. It’s very good.”

93 points.
Huon Hooke, The Real Review, 25 October 2024
“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.”
93 points.
Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion, 15 May 2023
“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.”
