Reviews and Ratings

Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Rosé all the way - from Creekside winery. Located in the Niagara Peninsula and made from 100% Syrah grapes. Aromas are fruity and floral with red berry filling, watermelon, white peach and cherry. Flavours show a blend of fruit salad, mandarin oranges and honey with some pink grapefruit citrus on the tongue. Acidity is bright and berry-filled with a balanced body. Although this Rose is deeply coloured, not to be mistaken for sweetness. It’s a dry 5g/L and still quite crisp.

For fun, add a little sparkling water and this also makes a nice wine spritzer. Suitable to pair with many foods, from tacos to tuna ceviche or simply on its own. Enjoy! Tasted August 2020
Neil Phillips rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Made from 100% Syrah, this veers from the currently trendy pale salmon roses to offer something with medium-ruby depth of colour.

Aromas of ripe strawberries, cherries and Nibs. On the palate, balanced acidity with good depth of fruit flavours.

great patio wine, and good value.

Tasted May 2020.
Excellent value for this mouth-watering, dry Creekside rosé made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wine grapes. Lots of ripe strawberry flavours and a touch of spice on the palate. Pair with roasted chicken. - Community Wine Reviews
