History: 2013 was our 22nd vintage in South Africa. Thanks to long-standing relationships with growers, we have been able to consistently source the best parcels of fruit and successfully establish the Boutinot South Africa style and standard always developing and improving quality. This means working in the vineyards, selecting the best sites, overseeing the winemaking.
Regional Information: This rosé has been created as a result of our long standing relationships with traditional growers in South Africa. This is young vine Grenache from Swartland which would otherwise have been blended away so is very much true to the championing cause behind the Sec Bird range.
Alcohol By Volume: 14
Tasting Notes: A beautiful, limpid pale salmon pink with delicate floral hints and wild red fruit flavours from the young-vine Grenache.
