First released in 1999, Mulderbosch's rosé was one of the very first of its kind from South Africa. At a time when most pink wines were a byproduct of red wine fermentation, Mulderbosch launched a varietal Cabernet Sauvignon rosé issuing from specially farmed vineyards devoted to producing this blushing beauty. Offering notions of red bell pepper and berries, this is a good choice for those times when you want a pink wine to pair with grilled chicken thighs or steaks. |
