2009 Rose
Tasting Note:
Bright Salmon pink in colour. Scents of ripe strawberry and ripe cherries on the nose. A deliciously harmonious wine with sugar (4,9g/l) and acid in perfect balance. Crisp and refreshing on the finish.Independents Note:
Red cherry vies with raspberry for dominance all very floral and fragrant. Sweeter red plum and strawberry lend some weight in the middle, the fruit feeling ripe. The freshness comes through again towards the back ensuring a long finish. Derek Smedley MW 2010Grapes:
80% Pinotage; 12% Pinot noir; 8% Shiraz. a combination of Elgin and Overberg fruitWhat to eat with:
Food partners: be adventures! – Roasted tomato soup, baba ganoush, Belgian endive salad, Moroccan lamb tajine and Cape Malay curry. It works with a wide range of Chinese dishes, especially duck.

The components were treated separately, given skin contact for up to 15 hours to ensure just the right amount of colour extraction. The grapes were gently pressed, the juice settled and thereafter racked to the fermentation tank. The wine was fermented with a selected yeast strain, stabilized and bottled. Blending followed rigorous tasting and experimentation by winemaking team.
