ROSE 2011
Certified as wine of origin Elim
BLEND
50% Black Oystercatcher
Cabernet Sauvignon
50% Black Oystercatcher Merlot
TASTING NOTES
The 2011 Rosé is an equal blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot
grapes. This distinctive red berry fruit on the nose, with strawberry and
pomegranate aromas originates from the unique way the two grapes are
fused. The wine lingers in a dry, crisp and mineral taste on the palate.
WINEMAKING NOTES
Both portions of this blend are picked at an early stage, moderate skin
contact given and only the free-run juice used with a cold fermentation
technique.
