Emilie Ryan rated this wine as 78/100 with the following review:

If you like fragrant wines, you should enjoy this rosé…
Bottle presentation: Colourful. However, the font and the border/edging give it a dated appearance, one akin to a grandmother’s handkerchief
Appearance: Strawberry red
Nose: A surprisingly fragrant, if not overpowering, floral and raspberry nose, with a hint of green herbs
Taste: Green vegetables, herbs and flowers
Finish: Strong alcohol and a hint of minerals.
Overall impression: Although an interesting combination, the various elements seem overpowering, if not unbalanced.
Value: 4 out of 5

Monique Sosa rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

The Pondview Cab Franc rosé pours with a rose petal pink appearance and pronounced citrus blossom, cherry, strawberry and bubblegum aromas. This berry burst characteristic is repeated in a glass. The palate shows moderate acidity, a light-bodied texture, and a long candied fruit finish. This is a perfect brunch/ patio wine. Enjoy with leafy green lightly dressed salads. Tasted July 2016. @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
