Vondeling Rose 750Ml

KSh 1,095.00

The wine has a delightfully delicate, salmon pink colour. It displays a bright bouquet of Turkish delight, raspberry coulis, passion fruit, and taught grapefruit. The palate is well rounded but refreshingly vibrant, packed with red berry flavours, seductive floral undertones, and a pleasant citrus twist. Pair with spicy Thai prawns, grilled Portuguese sardines, or a fresh tomato, feta and pomegranate salad.

Description

VINEYARDS

Made primarily from cold-pressed Merlot, the anchor vineyard for this delicious wine is over 20yrs old. Located on a granite spur in the foothills of the Paardeberg Mountain, the berries are well exposed to sunlight. Exposure to sunlight is essential to eliminate green flavours from the fruit.

The soil has a high clay percentage, and this lends softness and volume to the wine. Great care is taken to ensure that the vines do not bear too great a crop or suffer from drought. This is done through green cropping of the vines and micro-irrigation. Both practices help to preserve the natural acidity, freshness and vibrancy of the grape aromas

VINIFICATION

Grapes are picked at optimum ripeness in the early hours of the morning before being destemmed and chilled before pressing. This short route, from vine to press, ensures minimal degradation of the fruit aromas and a very moderate extraction of colour.

All free-run juice is kept separate from the colour fraction to ensure a deliciously subtle salmon colour. The juice is cold settled to remove any coarseness and fermentation is done in stainless steel tanks. The wine is 100% unoaked. A six-month period of maturation on the yeast lees promotes richness and complexity.
