A delicate and dry rosé to accompany you on hot summers days.
Sourced from vineyards 10k from the sea at an altitude of 260-300 metres with a an average age of 12 years. The grapes were de-stemmed and lightly crushed. The juice was immediately pressed, (only the lightest pressings are used) and cold settled for 2 days at 8ºC. Thereafter the clear juice was racked off its gross lees and transferred stainless tank for fermentation. No malolactic fermentation, no oak.
This is 100% Cabernet Franc rose from the slopes of Stellenbosch's Simonsburg Mountain. Zorgvliet's focus is entirely Bordelaise so a Cab Franc rose is a natural fit and a delightfully different product within our South African portfolio. Pale onion skin colour with bright, pink grapefruit flavours and a full, tangy finish.
A great wine for BBQs and picnics.
