88/100
A bright, almost luminescent colour. Made from a blend of Bordeaux varieties plus the disease-resistent French grape Chambourcin, this wine regularly rates as one of the country’s best examples of Rose. Fresh crushed berry and strawberry flavours with firm tannins effectively balancing a suggestion of sweetness to give a dry finish. Good gutsy Rose offering great value.
