Orange-pink colour, quite dark for a rosé. Nose of bird's eye chili, coriander and navel orange. Wow! That hot chili flavour comes through on the palate, hot and abrasive. There are also notes of orange and strawberry and, later, blueberry. By the end of the bottle, I've become used to the heat and what I was interpreting at bird's eye chili now tastes like a big, juicy red capsicum. A very weird wine.

Not much made it to my nose. Crisp, not much fruit but certainly mineral on the palate. My experience with Rose is limited but certainly drinks more like a white.

Pale salmon pink, with light flavors of strawberry, ripe melon, and a touch of bell pepper. With an expansive, spicy finish, this carries some weight, yet remains tangy and fresh.

pleasing pink-amber color. nose was very passionfruit/melon. palate notes of candied watermelon, a bit of strawberry and light on the pepper. always a great value.

similar to the previous vintage. this is a really unique rose. pale rasberry color with flowers, strawberries and pepper on the nose. green pepper, jalapeno and strawberrie on the palate. a bit more weight than most roses. very unique rose. served with a honey glazed chicken and potatoe salad and itwent really well together.
