Reviews

"2020 : Rose-hip pink and I am just loving the grip, earthiness, vitality and bold expression of this rosé. This is cracking delicious! Guava and rose petals, paprika and then into a cool, long, tongue-tip lick of wet iron and cold pebbles. There is a frisson of wasabi, and something refreshing that reminds me of cucumber slices in cold water. But above all else, this grippy little rosé has sass."
