 Tasted by alanh13 on 11/27/2017: Similar to last time. Very good, complex sparkling rosé with fruit and secondary aromas. (803 views)
 Tasted by alanh13 on 5/4/2017 & rated 92 points: Wow. This is excellent. Great bubbles, complex, quite a beery, leesy taste. Some fruit, strawbery-like, but this is becoming more secondary now. One of the best, if not the best, sparkling roses I've had. (869 views)
 Tasted by Bearbus on 4/22/2017: Strawberry and rhubarb, mandarin skin/pith. Gentle, tangy, palate flows easily, tangy finish. (805 views)
 Tasted by empire80 on 4/16/2017 & rated 91 points: This has improved with every bottle. Creamy strawberry and fine acidity. (931 views)
 Tasted by empire80 on 12/18/2015 & rated 90 points: I think this has got better with another couple of years in the bottle. This might be shaded by luxury rose champagne but it's well up to the "standard" stuff. (1135 views)
 Tasted by Paul S on 3/29/2014 & rated 91 points: Relaxing Saturday Lunch @ Capital Restaurant (Capital Restaurant, New Bridge Road, Singapore): Rather better than the last time I round I had it. It still had the unusually deep, almost coppery orange-pink. On the nose, it showed rather masculine tones of earth and white meat and mineral, with a waft of cherry and orange peel and some florals at the side. It was on the palate that this impressed me this time round. It had a good depth and heft to it, with slightly more pronounced fruit than the nose – strawberries and apple - I thought – not exactly ripe, but with a good flesh to it. It had a nicely structured feel too, with lemony acidity and fine, prickly mousse running through the fruit, and a good spine of mineral and earth running into a strong finish. Pretty good. Still a bit austere, but enjoyable nonetheless. (2457 views)
 Tasted by empire80 on 9/27/2013 & rated 89 points: strawberry nose, refreshing acidity, I prefer "ordinary" nyetimber but as a rose this does a credible job (1037 views)
 Tasted by Paul S on 7/20/2013 & rated 88 points: Nyetimber Vertical + some Unexpected Gems (Park Palace, Grand Park Hotel): The second of the Rosés, this too was a pleasant enough, but rather pedestrian wine. Like the 2007, it had a rather pretty nose, with bits of yeast and some minerality floating around scents of red berries and raspberries, a bit of red apple, with a nice floral accent at the edges. The palate came across rather austere, certainly very linear and defined, with red berries and slightly green strawberries tossed around with some citrussy green apple flavours. It did have a long finish, with the tiniest little bits of mineral and spice along with all those citrussy notes. At the moment, however, it still is very simple, very plain. Well-balanced though, so it will be interesting to try this in say 5-6 years down the road to see how it develops. (2435 views)
