Followed over two days open. Beautiful pink peach color with a clear and bright shine. Profound nose of recently-ripened strawberries and a hint of Bounce dryer sheet. Night one, it was pretty taught and muted. Day two, open and delicious. Can handle a bit warmer serving temp, too. I expect this to be most excellent this coming summer. 5+12+17+9= 93 I think it's funny how the label states 11-14% abv. Like, "who really gives a sheet" 😉

Not a fan. The structure and green-ness of the CF clashes with the svelte and light nature of the rosé aim here. It might settle, but just didn't work for me. Almost like a crunchy Tavel.

Good, but the clear glass allows for light strike. I implore wineries to avoid clear glass. I will avoid wines with clear bottles.

excellent refreshing and mineral driven no sense of candied fruit or overripeness at all

Pre-celebration dinner (Trelissick Crescent, Ngaio, Wellington, New Zealand): Fabulous rose that speaks of Cabernet Franc. Earthy and herbal, but also with a beautiful strawberry countenance which is dry and savoury and refreshing. Fun, but serious as well.

Nice savory tension, acidity and low alcohol. Some carbonic bittereness. Refreshing. 91- pts. Primo
