Golden Kaan Pinotage Rosé 2007

Authentic South African Pinotage with a twist! This wine has an attractive pale strawberry appearance and the nose shows exuberant fresh candy with hints of fl ower blossoms. The palate is fresh and fruity but not sweet. A distinctive off-dry, easy-drinking wine.

This fresh and fruity Rosé is best enjoyed with chicken salads, paella and sweet and sour dishes.
