Suppleness and subtlety helped Cavit scoop Gold with its Principato – and a coveted By The Glass spot. Riccardo Guzzardo of The Gilbert Scott found ‘interesting, floral notes of rose petals and little hints of spice’ on the nose, while team leader Jade Koch noted ‘apple, orange, clean minerality on an oily, textured, dry palate’, and Paolo Pivato of Luton Hoo Hotel Golf & Spa summed it up: ‘Ideal as an aperitif, pleasant and great value for money.’

The ultimate crowd pleaser and a worthy Perfect Pub wine, this has a ‘nice copper colour and very appealing style’, said Michael Moore of Room 24, with Riccardo Guzzardo of The Gilbert Scott noting: ‘Floral and citrusy, with a little red fruit on the nose, dry and light, medium-bodied style.’ Elegant and textured with balance and good length, it's happy to go solo or would go well with beef dishes with a touch of spice.

‘Pale as a rosé should be, and a beautiful aromatic nose,’ began consultant Caroline Symington, with Vinoteca Marylebone’s Mya Brown noting: ‘Strawberry and grapefruit aromas, bright, juicy grapefruit on the palate, with nice structure and a clean, dry, citrusy finish.’

‘Currants, red apple and apple skin/green aromas on the nose, peppery and leafy on the palate, with a pleasant slight bitterness, but overall crisp, bright flavours and a clean finish,’ said a pleased Mya Brown of Vinoteca Marylebone.
