Description

A crisp, pale pink rosé that bursts with fresh red berry aromas and a touch of citrus zest. Crafted from premium Franschhoek fruit, this vibrant 2025 vintage is all about effortless refreshment. Juicy and fruit-forward on the palate, it offers a lively balance of flavor and acidity, finishing clean and dry. Whether paired with light meals or enjoyed on its own, this elegant rosé captures the sunny charm of South African winemaking.
We handpicked grapes from select vineyards and gently de-stemmed them, limiting skin contact to preserve freshness. Fermentation took place in stainless steel using selected yeasts to retain purity of fruit. Aged on fine lees for six months, the wine gained elegant texture and layered complexity—capturing the vibrant, expressive character we love in this rosé.

Winemaker: Mari Kotze
