Another very good rose from 2008, this wine again had the lovely mid-pink hue associated with good examples of the style. A lighter style, but nonetheless satisfying, soft and slightly sweet, this wine should be a crowd pleaser at the cellar door.
Awarded: Bronze (15.5)

Break this out on a hot summers day along with some Thai and it is truly a match made in heaven. The ripe confectionery flavours of the fruit – think strawberry, raspberry and watermelon along with a semi- dry roundness to the finish just sets each element of the wine off nicely and delivers delicious Rose` drinking. Try with drunken Thai noodles.

This Margaret River blend of cabernet, shiraz and merlot is ideal for summer. With its lively berry aromas and flavours, it has bright fruit and a dry finish. Try it with spicy Asian food.

With a value-for-money label, this rosé smells distinctly of cabernet sauvignon and merlot. The wine contains both grape varieties as well as some spicy shiraz. An enticing pink, it is fragrant with tangy, clean acid.

A consistently impressive Margaret River rosé made from cabernet, shiraz and merlot: soft, fine, delicate, fruity, finishing crisp, dry and pure.
