Pinotage is a grape variety that originated in South Africa in 1925 from a unique cross between Pinot Noir and Hermitage (or Cinsaut). The father of Pinotage was Abraham Izak Perold, a university professor and winemaker who sought the best resistance to the dry summers of the Western Cape region of South Africa.
Kadette Pinotage Rosé presents itself with a delicate pale pink color. The nose gives aromas of sweet melon, cotton candy and summer berries. The acidity is fresh and bright and complements the sweet fruit character of the Pinotage variety.

The palate presents intense flavors of red cherries, melon, strawberries and raspberries. The delicate nature of this wine makes it suitable for any occasion.
Ideal served chilled between 8° C and 10° ̊C.
Expected evolution: Kadette Pinotage Rosé will give its best in the first 3 years after bottling.

Pairings: Kadette Pinotage Rosé perfectly accompanies grilled salmon or tuna, sushi, quiches and roast chicken.

Alcohol content: 14%.
