Craig Haynes rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

From British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley appellation, the Wayne Gretzky 2020 Rosé projects freshness, florality, strawberry and delicious stone fruit notes. Crafted mainly with Cabernet Franc, it feels refreshingly crisp, light weight and extra dry with a pleasing gentle grippiness on the fleeting finish.

Its pale tangerine hues are stand out eye catching and enhance the experience offered by this easy drinking Rosé. Simplicity is a plus not a minus for this creation. I’d serve this with spinach salads and grilled porkchops. Enjoy.

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

A bright and cheery pale coloured Rosé from Okanagan’s Wayne Gretzky Estates. While it might be pale in colour, it’s definitely not lacking in aromatics. White peach, orange citrus and appealing stony mineral notes shine throughout. Flavours are equally appealing with strawberries, watermelon and tangerine citrus following closely behind with a lingering hug of salinity. Light bodied and crisp. A wonderful Accompaniment with seafood, sushi and light salads. Cheers! - tasted November 2021
Christian Marcoux rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Wayne Gretzky Rosé 2020, from the Okanagan Valley, delivers aromas of strawberry, sour cherry, citrus blossom, rose petal and crushed rocks. This light colored Rosé is light-bodied, with a touch of acidity throughout the finish. On the palate: fruity flavors of cranberry, sour cherry, orange peel, citrus and salt. Enjoy.
Melanie Lloyd rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A very pale coloured Rosé made predominantly of Cabernet Franc. Aromas of field strawberry, cantaloupe, juicy peach, and bubble gum. Light, dry, and zesty on the palate with strawberry notes and a touch of saline. Enjoy on its own, with seafood salad, or with appetizers.

Great price, definitely a crowd pleaser. Aromas of field strawberry, lemon-lime, melon, and a hint of white peach. Dry, light bodied, medium+ acidity, with ripe red berry and vibrant citrusy notes on the palate and a clean, crisp finish. Enjoy with grilled salmon or pork, or as an afternoon sipper.
