Protea Dry Rose
This wine boasts tempting aromas of raspberry, strawberry and ripe red cherries. The palate delivers what the nose promises: ripe, bright red berry fruit. Add crispness from pleasing acidity to the mix along with a dryness that leaves the mouth crisp and clean with a lingering fruit memory. Refreshing and pleasant, it’s ideal for summer.
Valdo Prosecco
Rosé Brut Paradise is a truly unique product. The design of the bottle is made entirely by hand by New York designer Ceci Johnson, using the watercolour technique, digitised using specific scanners and then applied to the bottle. In keeping with Valdo’s sparkling wine tradition, the sparkling wine is made from a blend of Glera grapes and Sicilian Nerello Mascalese, which gives the product intense and pleasant fruity undergrowth aromas.
Six Dogs
Six Dogs Honey Lime gin is the inevitable result of a sustainability project that began when South African bee conservation company, Bee Smiths, approached Six Dogs Distillery to relocate rescued bees to the farm where their distillery is situated. The farm proved to be the ideal location for the bees. Experimentation with the honey produced by these bees resulted in an irresistible gin that combines the zestiness of farm-grown limes with the contrasting subtle sweetness of the honey, and the finest botanical spirit.
