Lesser skin-contact time has brought about a slightly lighter rose-gold Rosé hue for the Mulderbosch Cabernet Sauvignon Rosé. Very much in vogue and extremely pleasing to the beholder. Alluring sweet notes of peaches, strawberries, cream and candyfloss fill the nose. Subtle notes of cinnamon and Cabernet herbaceousness combine perfectly to entice further investigation. Wonderfully round and vivacious on the palate, but still exuding class! Our Rosé is elegant and full, with a very opulent creamy textural palate weight. It is both indulgent and just plain delicious.
Even with a slightly lighter color, the charms of our Mulderbosch Rosé will always remain. Cabernet Sauvignon will always be a classy variety and we will always bring all the best of it to the fore.
Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards are managed specifically with the idea of Rosé production in mind. Early picking dates result in naturally high levels of acidity and a bright spectrum of fruit flavors ideal in Rosé style wines. Once pressed, the juice is handled as per Sauvignon Blanc, i.e. cool fermentation with aromatic yeasts to heighten the vibrant, zesty aromas and fresh mineral palate. Crucial to this style of Rosé is early bottling in order to preserve the wine’s inherent freshness.
