Vrede en Lust Jess 2009

2008/9 WINE Magazine Best Value Award
This sophisticated dry Rosé is named after the owner's eldest daughter, Jessica Lee. The wine is characterised by its crisp style and fruity palate. The Jess displays fresh strawberry, cranberry and watermelon fruit, floral notes and a smooth finish.

Great as a starter wine ahead of more serious reds. Goes well with salads, cheese dishes, pasta, pizzas, seafood and especially shellfish. Enjoy it with barbeque and light curry dishes. Perfect for any occasion. 375ml and 750ml with screw-cap.
