Production
Younger vine Grenache Noir from Swartland and old vine Cinsault from Paarl are gently pressed after a few hours skin contact. Some whole bunch material adds crunch and texture to the wine to reflect its sandy granitic Coastal provenance, and the juice is left to ferment naturally. No additions, unfined and with only a coarse filtration.
Tasting notes
A vibrant pale pink colour. Redcurrant and crushed red fruits on the nose are backed up by ripe, gently savoury notes. A fresh, zesty style with good palate weight and cranberry and red cherry flavours balanced by good acidity. The finish has crunch and a lightly sandy texture which, combined with nice depth of fruit, makes it a great Rosé for food.
Food match
Dangerously easy to drink chilled on it's own or lovely paired with simply grilled fish or chicken.
