Wildekrans Caresse Marine White 2005

Grapes are picked from low yielding 20-year-old vines and harvested early in the morning before sunrise, to preserve fruit flavours. This lively blend of Chenin Blanc & Sauvignon Blanc is to be enjoyed young. It has sunny ripe flavours with a touch of Apricots, Peaches and Pineapples.

We believe there are no rules, experiment to your hearts content.SushiSeared TunaQuichesSalads
