McGregor Colombard 2009

Lovely fresh guava and fruit flavours from this green tinted, off-dry wine. The balance of fruit acid and sweetness brings out the flavours in harmony to create a refreshing easy drinking wine.

Serve between 10° - 12° C. A wonderful companion to roast lamb and vegetables as well as fish and chicken dishes.
