Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Cinsault Rose 2020

The wine has delicate pink hue that echoes that of rose petals. A beautiful bouquet of peach blossoms and fresh cherries follow on the palate supported by a citrus freshness and refreshing finish. 

This is a delicious wine that screams long lazy summer days in the sun with friends and good food.

in the vineyard : Owing to the age of the vines, the yield was less than 6 t/ha. With efficient suckering and the removal of excess bunches, only the strongest shoots were left with grapes for optimum ripening. 
about the harvest: The grapes were harvested from three old parcels of vineyards in the Stellenbosch and Perdeberg areas. These grapes were harvested to ensure the perfect balance of ripe flavours and fresh acidity.
in the cellar : The grapes only received 1 hour skin contact before the free run juice was drained. This allowed for the perfect colour balance and tannin profile. The wine was fermented with selected yeast strains to enhance the aromatic profile and to complement the fresh mouthfeel of the wine. After fermentation was completed, the wine was aged on the lees, in tank, for three months before preparation for bottling.
