Cederberg Sustainable Rose 2016

The Cederberg Rosé, made of single vineyard Shiraz, shows elegant aromas of strawberries, watermelon and cotton candy. It has a dry entry with a creamy palate yet it has a crisp finish. This Shiraz-based Rosé has an exotic coral pink appearance, a real summer refresher.
