PROTEA ROSÉ 2025

An array of summer fruit aromas – guava, gooseberry, kiwi and passion fruit combine with fresh stone fruits and citrus overtones. The same appealing summer fruits fan out on the palate, which is well balanced, and rounded with a gentle yet lively, crisp acidity. A deliciously refreshing summer wine with a long, lingering dry finish.

Intense aromas of stone fruits and orange blossom mingle with dried peaches and apricots, giving a foretaste of the flavours typically associated with sun-kissed Chenin Blanc fruit. The palate is rich and generous in flavour – ripe orange citrus, nectarines and fresh apple – all knit together by a bright, tangy acidity, which gives balance and length in a deliciously long, dry finish.

Complex and alluring bouquet of dark berry fruits: a melange of plum, violets, spice, tobacco leaf, cedar, earth with a light, perfumed cherry blossom nuance. Velvety smooth entry. The wine is all about texture: silky, supple and pliable it glides over the tongue. Understated spicy cedar underpins the juicy succulence and rounded, ripe, plush dark berry and plum fruit flavour. Super appealing structure and composition or mouthfeel, much of which can be attributed to the unobtrusive yet elegantly harmonious oak used in its maturation. Layered, poised and deliciouslyrewarding, it lingers on the palate.

Melon, nectarine and white peach with a light dusting of flint on the nose. Deliciously tangy and succulent on entry. Refreshing summer fruit salad with the melon and stone fruit joined by a lively green apple crunchiness. Vibrant, perky and zippy with bright, acidic citrus notes. Ideal for summertime lunches.
