Signatures of Doolhof Malbec Bushvine Blanc de Noir 2018

Made from hand-selected grapes from our estate in the Limietberg as well as grapes sourced in small batches in Simonsberg-Paarl ward. 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.
