Backsberg Bella Rosa 2007

This drained juice is light peach coloured. A Mediterranean medley of flavours - watermelon, peach, rose petals and potpourri. A blend of mainly Mourvedre and some of the major red varieties associated with the vineyards in close proximity to the Mediterranean.

This wine is delicious icy cold on its own, but also perfect for a picnic, braai or light lunch.
