The Ruins Rose 2005

This is South Africas first organic Rose. This is a very modern and stylish Rose with a vibrant clear red colour. The prominent red raspberry, strawberry and Frambois flavours are backed by a fresh intensely fruit driven and accessible palate that makes this wine the ideal companion to lazy sunny afternoons with friends and family. Enjoy now well chilled at a average of 13C.
