Lillypilly 2004 Gypsy Rose ... Blood red in colour, it emits a confectionary character to the nose enticing you to it. Projecting just the right level of sweet berry fruit luscious, succulent yet well balanced with the right acidity. The wine works remarkably well with Indian cuisine such as tandoori chicken tikka. Priced at around $12, it is great value. Paul Ippolito, Gold Coast Coast Seniors Newspaper (Southport) April 2006 SEE CLIPPING

NICE DROP FOR A SPICY AFFAIR: Lillypilly Estate 2004 Gypsy Rose. It's fresh, has nice fruit character and is a bit drier than the Red Velvet; at $14.50 it's ideal to take along to the local Thai BYO and enjoy with a Pad Thai noodle dish - or at home, served nice and cold with spicy sausages off the barbecue, peanut sauce and a crispy-crust damper. David Ellis, The Northern Rivers Echo (Lismore) January 6, 2006 SEE CLIPPING
