Coterie Cinsault Rosé, 2022

A Wildeberg wine begins life when we fall for a specific vineyard. The next step is simply expressing that place. In this case, we fell upon a block of organically-farmed, dry-grown bush-vine Cinsault grown on the Agter-Paarl’s mineral seams. The fruit was picked at a ripeness optimal for this rosé’s natural acidity, in the cool of dawn and trucked up the road to Wildeberg. The fruit harvested just made a full single press, which was then gently squeezed to old French oak demi-muids for natural fermentation. The color comes just from that light press and spends no further time on skins.

Tasting Note
A pale, lightly savory Rosé of depth and purity. The older oak wraps this dry, mineral wine in a delicate creamy veil leading to a bright, structured, and fine finish.

Pairings: Drink chilled on its own or serve with fresh seafood, quinoa, pomegranate salad, or herb
marinated grilled chicken tenders.
