Beskrivelse

Kleinood placeret I Helderberg området nær ved Stellenbosch.
Området er opvarmet om dagen og har kolde nætter. Druerne er plantet 172 – 198 meters over havet.
Dette er toppen af poppen og noget af det bedste jeg nogensinde har smagt.
Navnet Tamboerskloof kommer fra Valley (kloof) og trommer (tamboer).
A light Salmon colored Rosé with strawberry, melon and subtle spice notes on the nose, followed by fruit punch flavours on the palate.
No acidification ensures that this wine offers a rich and balanced mouthfeel. Chill to 13˚C and open 30 minutes prior to serving.
Starters, roasted beet salads, fresh figs with rich cheeses or seafood pasta and sushi.
Grapes were handpicked between 22 and 25 degrees balling to obtain the full red fruit spectrum of the grape.
The grapes were hand sorted across our sorting table before being de-stemmed into a stainless-steel basket press.
The juice settled overnight at 14 °C, where after the clear juice was racked off the lees and fermented in stainless steel tanks.
