Noble Hill, Mourvedre Rosé 2017, Simonsberg-Paarl, South Africa

Tasting Note: A basic, well-made, South African rosé.

Medium-intensity salmon in color, this wine has an aromatic nose of strawberry, red cherry and lemon citrus.

On the palate the dry, medium-bodied mourvédre rosé is spritzy with a steely texture and medium-plus acidity.

Bottle Note: Viticulture began on the granitic slopes of the Simonsberg mountains in the late 17th century.

Each grape variety grown at Noble Hill is represented by a different key from the farm’s past.

Crisp and dry, our mourvédre rosé elicits aromas of strawberries, watermelon, and black currant.
