Pinotage rose is usually a dark reddish pink with a ridiculous boiled cherry sweets flavour. But this is a beautiful pale colour with a creamy texture and a very subtle strawberry and mineral flavour. Dry and utterly gorgeous. £6.19 is a lot for a pink but this is of the same quality as a Sancerre rose. So, it's good value. IWC Silver Medal 2008..... However, not for those who like butch rose's that imitate red wine. |

The 2007 was a blend of pinotage, cabernet sauvignon and syrah and really was quite lovely. The 2008 is pure pinotage and tastes of strawberries, cream and, sadly, alcohol. Another wine bites the dust. G |
