Jon Steeves rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Beautiful brilliant rose gold colour, 11.5% abv. Blood orange, canned mandarin orange, a hint of ripe papaya. Dry, with crisp tart citrus notes. Mouthwatering, great acidity, well balanced fruit. Drinking well on its own and would pair well with summer salads, shellfish, baked white fish dishes, citrus glazed chicken, Asian fusion dishes. A sure crowd pleaser and accessibly priced. Patio season friendly, beach, seasonal festive gatherings will surely fit. Tasted May 2017. 91 points BespokeTastings

Matt Steeves rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Gorgeous faint pint colour, with crisp red apple, pear, and small wild strawberries on the nose and palate. Lunessence’s Blanc de Noirs is very refreshing and accessible making it ideal for enjoying throughout the summer and into the fall with your seasonal meals. Tasted May 2017. 89 points.

Julian Park rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Fruity aroma of freshly picked strawberries. On the palette a refreshing and minerally Rosé with gentle fresh acidity and residual sugar of 11 g/L.

Natalie's Review

Lunessence Blanc de Noirs Rosé 2016, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia BC V.Q.A., Canada: A lovely, mouth-watering rose with ethereal small strawberry notes. Although it's off-dry, the sweetness is barely perceptible with the racy acidity. Perfect for grilled seafood. Drink: 2016-2018. 163215 11.50% MD 750 mL $20.00 Score: 90/100.
