South African rosé wines – fruity summer pleasure

Although rosé wines have only played a role in South Africa's wine world for a few decades, the rainbow nation today boasts a considerable number of remarkable and highly rated rosés. Rosés from South Africa are often created from red grapes in the style of a Blanc de Noir, but rosé wines are also made from both red and white grapes.Exceptionally popular are rosé wines made from South Africa's red national grape, Pinotage, which gives the popular Pinotage rosés their unmistakable colour. South Africa's talented winemakers blend grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Pinot Noir, Mourvèdre, Gamay Noir, Grenache, Cinsault, Pinot Grigio, and Viognier into stunning rosé wine cuvées.
