"The best Provence rosé we've ever tasted! Intense fruity, yeasty nose. The palate is full, packed with lively fruit- pear, green apple. Ending with more lip-smacking fruit and clean-cut acidity."
"A deliciously fresh, appetising rosé. One to relish with salads. From Le Caveau, Kilkenny."
MARY DOWEY, Irish Times, 3rd August 2002.
