Reviews and Ratings

Deborah Podurgiel WSET IV Candidate - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

The "Here & There" series of wines from Fort Berens Estate Winery are "crafted in B.C. Wines" produced from grapes outside of B.C. After a severe cold snap in January 2025, the winery's vineyards suffered significant winter damage. Anticipating a very small harvest, the winery team ventured beyond BC borders (as did many other BC wineries) to the very similar vineyards and terroir of Washington state. The wines produced from the Washington fruit have been bottled separately with a distinct label dubbed the “Here & There” collection.

Here & There Syrah Rosé is produced from 100% Syrah grapes sourced from 25-plus year old vines from the Wahluke Slope in Washington State. Grapes were hand-harvested, destemmed and crushed with up to six hours of skin contact giving this wine a vibrant ruby hue. The crush was cold-fermented and the rosé is showing an incredible nose and flavours of fresh, bright red cherry, ripe red plum, fine herbs, lavender, dry, medium-bodied and creamy on the palate. So refreshing, juicy and flavourful, it's going to be a killer patio rosé to enjoy chilled on its own or with chicken, lamb or veggie kebabs from the grill. Tasted April 2025.
