Rosé All Day! Had a hard time believing the first bottle we tried was as good as we remembered it was... so we waited a week and tried a second. Delightful punchy nose of strawberry and citrus. Alcohol (13%) is well integrated and the acid is refreshing. Going back to get a case.

Love this New Zealand rosé. For the price, I’ve added it to my rotation. Crisp and light with a juicy strawberry nose :)

If you love delicate slightly perfumed Provençal Rose this may not be for you - it has bags of flavour & full strawberry & vanilla. Loved it with veal!

I quite regularly drink The Ned Sauv Blanc back in Perth, so when I spotted this 2017 Pinot Rosé on the shelves in NZ, I thought I better grab a bottle to try.

This rosé is made from two Pinots. Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris - each giving something different and tasty to the wine.

It’s a pale pinky peach colour on the eye. The nose is full of watermelon 🍉, peach, herbs and cherries 🍒. While in the mouth it’s dry and refreshing with flavours of rockmelon, citrus and strawberries 🍓. Very enjoyable after a day out fishing 🎣 on the boat 🚤.

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #tcweekdaywine

A classic cheap rose. Citrusy notes.

Strawberry, peach and citrus on the nose. Peach color. Tastes bright, citrus and stone fruit come to mind
