Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Bright strawberry pink colour with a fresh nose of raspberry and redcurrant. The palate repeats, with an off-dry, bright food-friendly acidity and a bright berry finish.
Maureen rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

This wine has fullness that is close to a red wine. More body than Whispering Angel so it holds up well to heartier fare.
This vibrant Ontario rose is a blend with aromas of field raspberry and pepper. Just a touch of sweetness on the palate, and a lick of spice on the finish. Pair with summer salads garnished with fresh orchard fruit. - Community Wine Reviews
