Wine information:
Tradition and talent blend with passion, precision and patience at Nederburg, where classically structured wines are made with vibrant fruit flavours. Nederburg’s hallmark combination of fruit and finesse continues to be rewarded around the world. Ingenuity is Nederburg’s platform for innovation and houses exciting new blends made from lesser-known varietals or those combined in interesting new ways. The Foundation Collection is the entry point to Nederburg's wines. The grapes were sourced from vineyards in the Durbanville and Darling areas - it is 100% Pinotage. The grapes were harvested by hand during mid-February at 18º to 19º Balling. They were crushed and received four to six hours of skin contact. Cool-fermentation followed in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for two to three weeks at 13ºC before being left on the lees for a day. The Nederburg Rosé is a lovely pale orange rosé colour. The nose has soft and fruity aromas with an abundance of strawberry notes, dried herbs and candy floss. On the palate this semi-sweet wine is lively and light to medium-bodied with a clean, fruity and refreshing finish. Excellent served with smoked salmon, summer salads or vegetarian dishes.
