Benguela Cove "Backbone" Walker Bay Rosé, 2020

South Africa, (Walker Bay WO)
70% Syrah, 30% Sauvignon Blanc
13%

 

This rosé champions Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc as signature grapes for this cool terroir and the vineyards were managed and farmed to preserve freshness and aromatics for the making of rosé.

TASTING NOTES: Peach pink in color this delicious medley of fruit, florals and candied aromas opens doors to enjoy this wine as an aperitif or to complement an array of colorful dishes. It is enjoyed for expressions of pomegranate, boiled sweets and red apple, tailed by notes of strawberries and watermelon. And yes, the creamy palate is as mouth-watering as it sounds.

 

FOOD PAIRINGS: Prawn cocktail, aromatic curries, asparagus, crispy prosciutto, and brie.
