Reviews and Ratings

Craig Haynes - WSET3 FWS SWS IWS rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Showing some stunning light salmon hues, this Rosé is refreshing, approachable, and enjoyable.

A blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Gamay Noir, this creation has aromatic appeal from expressions of wild strawberry, lightly sweet melon, and red cherries. It tastes lovely, evoking micro-doses of fresh red berry and melon flavours.

For me, this creation from Ontario’s Niagara Peninsula appellation feels nice going down. Elegant, silky, crisp, dry, and tilts light bodied. Enjoy.

I’ll serve this with a plate of charcuterie that’s accented generous helpings of fresh red berries.

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Beautiful and bright. Aromas of cherry and strawberry with notes of tangerine and melon. Dry, with refreshing brightness, and charming fresh berry notes. Enjoy with a fresh summery salad of spinach, strawberries, and goat cheese.
