Light-bodied and deliciously fruity, this rosé wine by Bonnievale Wines is set to become everyone’s favourite all-rounder. Taking the wine beyond the ordinary is the slightest suggestion of pearly bubbles, its dusk-pink hue, and abundant flavours of succulent berries. Plus, its alcohol content is just 8.5% ABV.
Enjoy it as a sundowner or as stylish midday refreshment. Try the wine as an aperitif, but also as a stand-out partner to food. It goes brilliantly with spicy dishes like curry as well as with salads and sushi or simply enjoyed with pizza and burgers.
The Rosé Moscato Perlé is a sweeter style rosé and gets its colour and flavours from Muscat de Frontignan grapes that grow in the Robertson Wine Valley. Here, the vines are gently warmed by the sun and cooled by evening breeze – ideal conditions for producing this wine.
The wine is part of Bonnievale Winery’s The River Collection, named in reference to the Breede River and its life-giving significance to the region’s farming families. The award-winning range houses a selection of premier white, red and rosé wines.
According to Bonnievale Wines Group CEO John Barnardt, the wine was added to The River Collection in response to the surge in demand for low alcohol wines, complemented by perlé wines that are flavourful and well made. “As consumers have become familiar with the excellence of Bonnievale’s wines, sales of our perlé rosé are soaring,” he says.
It sells for R73/bottle and is available online and the cellar door in Bonnievale, currently at a launch promotion price of R788.40 for 12 bottles. Roll-out to retailers and restaurants countrywide is in process. Order online at buywine.bonnievalewines.co.za.
