Sparkling Rosé
Sparkling Rosé is one of the most stylish and versatile sparkling wine styles, instantly recognisable for its delicate pink hue and lively bubbles. Produced either by allowing brief skin contact with red grapes or by blending a touch of red wine into a white base, it captures both freshness and fruitiness in one glass.
In style, Sparkling Rosé ranges from pale salmon to vibrant pink, offering aromas of strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant, and rose petals, sometimes lifted by citrus or floral notes. On the palate, it is typically crisp and refreshing, with bright acidity and soft red fruit flavours. Drier versions lean elegant and mineral, while slightly off-dry examples show a juicier, fruit-forward charm.
For UK drinkers, Sparkling Rosé is perfect for celebrations, summer sipping, or pairing with food. It complements smoked salmon, charcuterie, chicken, seafood, salads, and soft cheeses, making it as versatile as it is celebratory.
Anthonij Rupert Wyne L’Ormarins Rosé MCC Brut NV (6 Bottles) Western Cape, South Africa
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Anthonij Rupert Wyne was founded on the farm, L’Ormarins in Franschhoek. Originally owned by the late Anthonij Rupert, who passed away in 2001, the farm was eventually taken over by his brother Johann Rupert in 2003 and the brand named after him. It was Johann Rupert who constructed a state-of-theart winemaking facility, catapulting the farm into a prestigious wine estate. The focus is on terroir specific wines and therefore it would seem obvious that the brand is made up of an impressive portfolio of farms representing the best in grape producing locations. The portfolio is made up of L’Ormarins from Franschhoek, Rooderust from Darling, Riebeeksrivier from the Swartland and Altima from isolated Elandskloof. Each site offers optimum varietal specific growing conditions, allowing Anthonij Rupert Wyne to adhere to the requirements of their different brands.
The wine presents a beautiful, delicate salmon pink hue. The nose is enticing, with charming aromas of raspberry and strawberry, complemented by a hint of peppery spice. On the palate, lively bubbles bring bright red berry flavours and a crisp acidity. Rich, creamy lees notes and toasted biscuit flavours from the secondary fermentation in the bottle add balance and depth. Playful yet serious, it offers excellent structure, length, and a clean, focused finish.
