Weltevrede Philip Jonker Brut Lindelize Rosé NV

A salmon coloured Cap Classique with delicate bubbles. The nose is yeasty with hints of cherries, strawberries and peach blossoms. Crisp notes of freshly picked rose petals and a slight peachiness on the palate with a lingering finish offering flavours of Strawberries and Cream.
A gentle blush. Like the flush when touched by a beautiful emotion, the colour of delight, of someone in love. This delightful Cap Classique celebrates the feeling of being in love. Lindelize is the name of Philip Jonker's wife.

On it's own or with fresh strawberries, Turkish delight or fruit salad. Works very well as a welcome drink with a variety of Canapés.
