Cape Mentelle Rosé

Cape Mentelle Rosé is a fresh, vibrant expression of the typical dry rosé style. It’s one of the favourites of the winemaking team as we are able to play with varieties not planted on our estate and of vineyards from different areas in the local region.  

GRAPE:
Shiraz 58%, Tempranillo 9%, Zinfandel 9%,
Grenache 8%, Pinot Noir 4%, Sangiovese 4%
Mourvedre 4%, Nebbiolo 2%, Graciano 2%

AROMA AND PALATE:
The palate characteristics burst forth with pink and red fruits; watermelon, raspberries and wild strawberries, with hints of cranberry. It has medium weight with a juicy yet creamy balance of red rose petal with a green lime zest finish. Hints of salinity and minerality highlight the maritime influence of the nearby ocean

PARING: 
Enjoy with fresh watermelon, spearmint and feta salad; melon wrapped in prosciuitto, salmon quiche or a simple hunk of Comte cheese with thin slices of jamón.
