De Grendel Proposal Hill 2018

Complex and with a weighty palate, this bone-dry rosé has a fine and persistent mousse introducing hints of oyster shell and fresh lavender aromas. Intense strawberry coulis and black cherry flavours are well-balanced by firm acidity and linger in the exceptionally long finish.

Buy this wine because it has all the hallmarks of a conventional  and meticulously constructed bubbly, with the added allure of being playful and exciting. We can’t think of an occasion when this glorious Cap Classique would not be perfect! Enjoy!

It pairs great with hard and matured cheeses like Pecorino or Grana Padano and Parmesan. It makes for an excellent aperitif, a palate cleanser between courses, or a refreshing ending to a decadent meal. It’s also lovely with sweet fruits like persimmons and dried apricots
