Deep autumn orange/pale red, the color almost seems artificial. Strawberry and raspberries on the nose, along with a slight cotton candy sweetness and roses. The palate is fruity, full of berries; but also spicy, like black pepper, especially on the finish. Nicely acidic, which balances the mild sweetness, and decent complexity for a rose.

Huge fresh strawberry flavors, touch of melon. Don't overthink this one and you'll find yourself loving it. Great way to toast the end of the warm months and to our first meal together in our new married life! I'd buy it again without hesitation.

Had with grilled rainbow trout, a delightful match, definitely a summer wine, but it was still warm out so it worked for us! Nice dry fruit, not harsh at all

Deep yet pale watermelon color. Nice red berry aroma with some sweet watermelon & this mineral thing that Stellenbosch always seems to have. Lush, focused entry of bright red berry & juicy watermelon. Lovely fruit flavors that last on the palate. The finish is fruit driven acidity. Simple, tasty, lovely rose in perfect balance.
