Avontuur Vintners Blend Chardonnay / Pinot Noir 2013 - DISCONTINUED

Colour: Coral
Aroma: Summer melon and a hint of ruby grapefruit tantalizes the nose.
Flavour: Pomegranate and ruby grapefruit follows through from the aroma. Lees contact adds to the complexity for a richer taste experience.

A perfect lunch time wine. Great with sushi, salads and cold fish or curedmeat platters.
