"...This smooth 13.5 per cent alcohol drop is inky purple and has fruitcake scents and ripe black cherry front-palate flavour. The middle palate brings in bramble jelly, dark chocolate and nutty oak and dusty tannins play at the finish."<b> 4.5 stars</b>

"Wow, this is incredible value. This fetchingly pretty rosé sits in the dry and savoury camp, and tastes like an adult version of watermelon juice."

"Names after the French term for making a white or Rose wine from red - and grey-coloured grapes, in this case Pinot Noir (black/red) and Pinot Grigio (grey). Turkish delight, red apples and pear, there's a textural quality on the tongue, reminiscent of nearly frozen cream; high slurpability factor on this."

The Pinot Grigio/Arneis blend is also a standout. This is a pale and dry style of rosé, vegan friendly, and made from a blend of pinot grigio and pinot noir grapes grown in the Riverina. 10 months on lees have added complexity, as has a touch of old oak, but this is essentially a fun and food-friendly wine best enjoyed chilled."<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 1; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; display: inline; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "></div>

<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; ">"This fun-loving rosé is a combination of mostly pinot gris with a dash of pinot noir juice lending some additional depth and colour. The resulting pale-coloured drop is brightly flavoured, finely chalky in texture, imbued with crisp cranberry and pomegranate freshness and finishes with a savoury spice character. The perfume is one of its biggest assets, resplendent with raspberry, strawberry and rosewater fragrances, it's wildly drinkable and superb value."</span>

<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; ">"This lip-smackingly good rose is an homage to Melbourne's fabulous Laneway culture... rosé shares some similarities with the Laneways of Melbourne. The two aren't well known, they are hidden delights mainly enjoyed by the cognoscenti and they both represent great value in terms of the experience. This is a dry rose, salmon in colour and with hints of strawberry and great acidity. The price is ridiculous."</span>

"French for Dry Pinot Gris Rosé, a fantastic style of pale Rosé with its creamy texture, perfume, gentle acidity and temping drinkability. Just the ticket with some fish tacos."
