Clover Hill Cuvée Rosé wins the Perpetual Trophy

“Complex and attractive. Very fresh nose. Palate backs up the nose. Lingering and complex. Well balanced. Excellent synergy with the dish. Long and lingering.” Warren Gibson

“Apple nose. Palate of apple with hints of red fruits, gentle savoury undercurrent and attractive freshness. Work really nicely with the freshness of the dish which lifts it further.” Jo Burzynska

“Med to pale rose colour. Mineral nose with light field flowers. Citrus, zippy acidity, fresh, not terribly toasty but well-balanced. Good length of finish, with persistent chalkiness. Well done. Simpler food matches might work better, with some degree of spice easily handled here.” Eugene Mlynczyk

“Light salmon-pink in colour with delicate notes of pink grapefruit, strawberry and pear. A wine that dances off the tongue, though there is some firmness to its finish. It tastes more delicious either alone of perhaps with non-seafood dishes. It tasted rustic and tannic with the dish.” Robin Kick

“Pale salmon pink, hints of red fruit, and delicate herbs, searing acid, well balanced dry as a bone style with delicate red fruit. A fresh match, for a warm day brunch or light lunch.” Sue Bastian

“Salmon pick – looks very pretty in the glass. DMS and slightly dirty nose – enough artefact and ferment esters to get away with it. Compelling structure with driving acid, bready autolysis and a goes balance of primary fruit to keep the wine fresh and interesting. Good wine. With food – terrific. Acid really works and length of palate comes into lay nicely. Compelling..” Mark Robertson
