Haut Espoir Shiraz Rose 2006

The combination of our Shiraz grapes and fermentation in French oak, lead to upfront strawberry flavours. The wine is full bodied and has a dry finish and lingering aftertaste.

This dry wine can be enjoyed at any time of day, and can be partnered with a wide range of meals or snacks. Venison, fish and cheese are a perfect match.
