Napier Petite Marie Rosé - Napier Vineyards

The Napier Petite Marie Rosé from the Western Cape winegrowing region presents itself in the glass in a radiant ruby red. The initial nose of the Napier Petite Marie Rosé reveals nuances of lemon and raspberry. Additional fruity-balsamic nuances join the fruity components of the bouquet.

This wine impresses with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with only 1.3 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and thus, despite all its dryness, this South African wine enchants with the finest balance. Flavor does not necessarily require a lot of residual sugar. This light rosé wine presents itself on the palate as balanced and multi-layered. Thanks to its well-balanced acidity, the Napier Petite Marie Rosé caresses the palate with a soft mouthfeel, without sacrificing juicy liveliness. On the finish, this youthful rosé wine from the Western Cape wine region finally delights with good length. Once again, hints of raspberry and lemon appear.
