Very pale orange in colour with pretty aromas of cantaloupe, blood orange, sweet cherry and lavender. It's dry, medium bodied, bright and refreshing in an easy-drinking style. There's a touch of residual sugar that gives the wine texture, but it's nicely balanced with a spicy finish. A great summer sipper to enjoy on its own or with paprika-dusted barbecued chicken.

This is perfect to sip on a hot day with some good friends. Like Nicole Kidman eating a fruit salad while reading about Tom Cruise’s recent troubles. It’s powder pale, kinda pretty, smells like apple and cantaloupe and will put a large smile on your face. One bottle will certainly not be enough.

Strawberries, spices, and floral notes on the nose. Fruity and easy drinking, but nothing exceptional.
