CFV –
Winestate Magazine – 2020: “Lively savoury red fruit fragrances and a lovely elegant and delicate palate with great intensity of “honest” fruit flavours and a sweet fruit finish.”
Winestate Magazine ‘Annual Rose Tasting 2020’: “Attractive strawberry and cream style; a floral lift to the nose and flavoursome fruity length to the palate.”
CFV –
Huon Hooke – The Real Review: “Light to medium-pink hue. The aroma is strawberry and red cherry, almost pinot-like, with a smoky overtone. The palate is dry and crisp, finishing with a touch of grip. A serious, more structured rosé.”

Dr Louis Papaelias – Medical Forum Magazine: “Made by Brian Fletchers successor, Severine Logan, who took over the reins in 2019. This is mainly Shiraz with 3% Tempranillo. Lovely pale salmon pink it has lively berry aromas. Attractive young fruit flavours continue through to the clean crisp aftertaste.”

Erin Larkin – Wine Companion: “All things in place here in this pretty rosé – flavours span the full spectrum of red berries, bolstered by gentle sprinkles of spice and bright acidity. Despite the 13% alcohol, there is a trace of heat through the finish. Decent summertime drinking to be had, and a super-smart new label.”
