Signatures of Doolhof Malbec Bushvine Blanc de Noir 2017

Made from the only block of bush vine Malbec on the farm. Light Salmon pink in colour with delicate aromas of crushed strawberries, flower petals and underlying white truffles. Finishes with a subtle freshness of pomegranates and a stylish zesty silkiness.

This Blanc de Noir pairs well with turkey, cranberries, or a salad with pomegranates, candied nuts, and goat cheese
