Innocent Bystander Pinot Rose
'I reckon you could have your mind drifting to Provence with this delightful little pinot noir based rose. Light and aromatic with an appealing understated palate displaying some nice cherry and raspberry flavours. Good flavour with a fine, almost soft, acid and a crisp dry finish. Yep, this is rose you can really enjoy.' - 93/100 - West Australian, 15 May 2014, by Ray Jordan.
