Raka Rosé 2011

Name: Raka Rosé 2011
Brand: Raka
SKU: 29533

Appearance: Bright berry red colour
Bouquet and Palate: Fresh summer berries on the nose with hints of candy and an ellusive hint of oak. The crisp palate is supported by the acidity of the Sauvignon blanc ensuring a long, lingering aftertaste.

Served well chilled, this wine is well suited to any seafood, pasta, salads and cold meats. Also delightful on its own!
