Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Nova Scotia's answer to Moscato d'Asti! Low alcohol, at 7%, with a gentle spritz, this delightful white blend has quickly put Nova Scotia winemaking on the map. Highlighting Muscat varietals, it shows lovely white tree fruit and floral aromatics, with an intriguing saline minerality. Equally delightful with lobster or a fruit flan. Serve well-chilled.
Tasted July 2016
Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Wow! A classic Canadian wine from Benjamin Bridge, this wine is designed to please. Off-dry, great acidity, well balanced fruit and complexity. Aromatics of ripe strawberry, orange blossom, minerality, with a hint of fresh fleshy apricot. 7% ABV. Enjoyable before, with or after food. "Jean-Benoit Deslauriers has redefined diversity With this wonderful wine". "Beautiful on the eyes, nose and palate and affordable on the wallet, this is a sure thing." Enjoy this salmon pink, lightly sparkling rosé with loved ones, it's worthy! @jonsteeves rated 91/100 - tasted Oct 2016
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Zesty, aromatic and delicious! This wine boasts mouthwatering acidity for days! Clean pronounced notes of watermelon, wild strawberry, and mint lure you in for more and more. This worthy lightly fizzy, crisp, refreshing rosé hails from Nova Scotia! Enjoy with smoked salmon. Tasted Oct 16. @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
Melanie Aubert rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

A beautiful salmon colour, with rose petals, anjou pear, pink grapefruit and lychee on the nose. On the palate, it is like wine candy: honeydew melon, candy apple, lychee, candied pineapple and elderflower, with some residual sugar. And this will change depending on what you pair with it. We had it with chicken and shrimp stir-fry the other night, and it was pretty darned tasty! It would also make an excellent apéritif to get you salivating before a meal.

Philippe Perreault - Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Made of 100% New York Muscat.

Deep amber color with notes of lychee, golden kiwi and undergrowth.
It's light-bodied, balanced and medium on the palate.

Pair it with a seaweed salade or take it on its own.
Serve it at 6-8 degrees.
Enjoyable now.
Tasted August 5th 2024!
