The nose shows, rich, ripe, deep fruits of; strawberries, cherries, very ripe, juicy watermelon, orange rind, soft powdery minerals & chalkiness, hints of herbaceousiness, bay leaf withering red flower and roses.
The body is full, rich, thick and somewhat candied. Rich, ripe, deep fruits of; strawberries, cherries, very ripe, juicy watermelon, orange rind, soft powdery minerals & chalkiness, hints of herbaceousness, bay leaf withering red flower and roses. The acidity is like a waterfall and the finish is rich, juicy and delicious.
Photos of; Rustenberg’s hillside vineyard, barrel room, winemaking cellar, and the view from their property.

Rich ripe fruit and a hint of residual sweetness. Not a complex rosé but easy-drinking and well-balanced with oodles of strawberry fruit.

Nov 5th, 2016Not a particularly strong nose, but it's got a substantial body and a little bit of spice to it that complements the watermelon notes on the palate. Not my favorite rosé from the Western Cape (that would be Riebeek Cellars' pinotage rosé), but it's a good summer sip.

Mar 6th, 2016A big rosé style and with lots of fruit sweetness. Still balanced - a well made example of Cape Pink.

Juicy rosé with rich, ripe fruit notes. Slight sweetness. Medium body for a rosé. Deep pink color.
