...be drunk in our house.

By Boroimbiber

This is my wife's choice more than mine but I do get to have at least one glass after popping the cork! It's consistently good of its type and I must say that when comparing it against the 'real thing' from France it stands up so well for drinkability and certainly price. And being a rosé there is something of reddish fruit about the finish that could well be strawberries! We repeatedly try other wines of this style when abroad, cava, sekt and the like and although some may be cheaper most never seem to fulfil as this does so it will always be drunk in our house.

Light with the hint of sweetness expected of a Rose this wine gets any gathering off to a good start and creates a party all on its own...any season.

Just right for a drinks party

By Leo66

Finding the right sparkling wine for a Christmas Eve drinks party for 40 people meant a few weeks of tastings. Well, after the usual yes, but too expensive we settled on Hardys Crest Brut Rose.At just over £5 per bottle we couldn't go wrong and we didn't . Twenty four bottles later we all went carol singing luckily at 11.5% we didn't all fall over. An ideal lighter wine for for a drinks party. Well recommended and good service. It arrived when promised.

The perfect sparkling wine!

By Kandy22

This is the perfect wine to accompany any meal, to drink on its own or as a superb alternative for non-loving Champagne drinkers like myself. It is light and refreshing and full of flavour. It is dry like Champagne and served chilled is simply delicious!

Deliciously reliable

By mike02

This review is for the 2011 vintage

A 100% reliable rose, ideal with poultry dishes and excellent drinking by itself. Drier than a Zinfandel & should appeal to those who usually opt for red wine or sauvignon blanc. 5 stars at a discounted price!

My husband loves good champagne but the price does not allow for general occasions. Hardys Crest Sparking is brilliant. Ideal, especially for Summer months!
