Description

90pts... It is immediately appealing, a juicy palate that is fruit expressive and lively

"It is immediately appealing on the nose displaying white nectarine, mandarin, lime zest and watermelon characters, leading to a juicy palate that is fruit expressive and lively. Wonderfully priced and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2018." Sam Kim Wine Orbit Sept 2016

A very likeable, refreshing Rose made from a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Malbec grapes. This wine has a lifted nose showing aromas of watermelon and  ripe strawberries with refreshing citrus and dill characteristics. The palate is juicy and flavoursome and displays attractive fruit intensity and vibrancy.

Ideally served chilled on a hot summers day with a range of different tapas. Perfect for drinking now, This Rose will continue to drink well over the next 2-3 years.

Lovely drop, drinks like a $20 wine.

Fresh and crisp, a very nice drop. Would purchase again

I reordered this wine because it is a light fruity tasting wine which suits my palate as a alternative to my other favorite Sauvignon Blank. I have only recently become a Rose drinker and this Wishbone is the best I have tasted - even compared with some more highly priced Roses.

Great value good wine

Pru - 21/07/2017

I like this rose', a little more complex than the normal sav's. Really excellent value for the price I paid.

Very nice and refreshing

Judi - 28/02/2017

Outstanding value for money, as the wine has great aromas, a fruity, strawberry-rose flavour and is dry but not exceedingly so. The wine has nothing of a Sauvignon Blanc taste. The careful use of Malbec has transformed the base variety used for the wine into something quite special, at the purchase price.

Stuarto - 14/01/2017

Fantastic easy drinking summer wine. Will buy more

An extremely fine rosé, bursting with white fruit zestiness and Summer’s bounty. Easy drinking, it is crisp on the tongue with an appealing mouth-feel that lingers just long enough so you are continually surprised with each subsequent sip!

Mark - 16/12/2016

Light easy drink. Bring on summer!

Elda - 17/09/2017

Has substance

Mike - 11/05/2017

An understated SB with petrhaps less acidity than in others I quaff - I like that about it. Well-flavoured and plenty of compliments from those I'm sharing it with. Excellent value for money.

easy drinking and easy on the purse

Ann - 11/09/2017

Nice rose, but unlikely to repurchase

Max - 08/06/2017

A little 'thin' for my taste in rose, but certainly good value for all that.

Quentin - 20/02/2017

S
Inexpensive, but if you prefer a crisp dry rose this wine is not for you! It's too sweet for my palate.

Susan - 20/02/2017

C
A lite style ,lacking full flavour but considering the price was okay
