Gaia 4-6 Agiorgitiko Rose 2024
Rosé 12% ABV ABV GaiaGood everyday-ish rosé
The wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted something a step up from supermarket rosé. He was right, it's noticeably better — cleaner, more structured, proper finish that doesn't just vanish. At 12% it's not too heavy either which is nice for a Tuesday night.
BBQ wine sorted
Bought a couple of these for a barbecue last weekend and everyone kept asking what it was. It's really refreshing but not watery like some rosés can be. The finish sticks around which I liked. Would definitely get it again for outdoor eating.
Solid Greek rosé
My friend brought this to a dinner party and I was surprised how good it was. Really clean on the nose, nothing weird or off-putting, and the balance between fruity and dry is spot on. I'd buy it again but probably wouldn't pay over £16 regularly.
Nice but a bit pricey
It's a decent rosé, don't get me wrong. Well made, good acidity, goes down easy with food. But there are rosés from Provence at the same price that I'd probably reach for first. Not bad by any means, just not sure it stands out enough for the money.
Really nice summer find
Picked this up from a local wine shop on a whim and honestly it's become my go-to rosé. There's a proper depth to it that most rosés just don't have — you can actually taste layers of fruit rather than just "pink wine." At £16 it's not cheap for a weeknight but it's worth it for something a bit special.
Best rosé I've had in ages
I'm not usually a rosé person but this completely won me over. The aromatics are gorgeous — really clear and inviting — and it's got way more complexity than I expected at this price point. Agiorgitiko is such an underrated grape. Already ordered another case.
Greek wines are having a moment
Saw this on a restaurant menu and the waiter talked me into it. So glad he did. It's got this lovely freshness but also something more going on underneath — almost like it rewards you for slowing down and actually tasting it properly. Tracked down a bottle to buy at home the next week.
