Monique Sosa reviewed this wine as follows:

Mild floral aromas with wild strawberries and lemon zest notes. Light easy drinking and pretty in pink. Enjoy with feta and strawberry skewers. Tasted March 2018.

Jon Steeves rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

An accessible rosé designed for patio season. Wild strawberry, anise on the nose. On the palate, wild strawberry and savoury. Zesty, light, refreshing. Pairs well with baked salmon and seasonal veggies. Tasted NV in March 2018. 88 points. Great value.

Sharon Lécuyer rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Aromas of strawberry and honey. Medium-bodied, tart taste with a smooth finish.

I'd pair this with a hot summer day or seafood. This wine isn't overpowering in flavour so would pair well with a dish that has lots of flavours so that the wine isn't competing with your dish.

Greg Hughes rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

A fun rosé made from traditional Crete varietals, Kotsifali and Mandilaria. Both produce soft wines, with lots of alcohol and colour.
In thos rosé they've been managed to prodduce a soft, low acid, dryish wine with some pretty aromatics.
Orangey-red in colour, with some orange and strawberry flavours. It has a really interesting mineral finish.
Put it with some cajun gumbo or something involving tomato and seafood.

Lynn van der Linde rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Heady citrus and floral notes carry through to a zippy lime finish.
A super great value rose, perfect with white fish dishes or simple pizza.
