A high-quality, dry, and structured rosé from Prieska in the Northern Cape, South Africa. Made by acclaimed winemaker Lukas van Loggerenberg, this wine is noted for its serious, textured profile rather than just simple fruitiness. Looking for a Rose Wine for Food
'The 2024 is a fruity, full-bodied five-way blend of our red cultivars. A dance-off of fragrant spice and cool herbs on the nose, followed by lovely red fruits and hints of black tea on a lengthy palate. With the higher components of tannat and petit verdot balanced by merlot’s juicy softness, this Bokooi delivers a perfect balance of intensity and drinkability.' – Lukas van Loggerenberg
Food Pairing: Due to its structured, savoury, and dry nature, this rosé is highly versatile and can handle more intense flavors than lighter roses. This wine screams hot summer evenings, pork belly or lamb chops on the braai. Has such good tannin structure, it drinks like a red. So unique.
Matured for nine months in fourth-fill barrels. Strawberry, pomegranate, earth and spice on the nose. The palate shows bright fruit, well-integrated acidity and a dry finish, with just the right touch of creamy texture. Far from innocuous. Alc: 12.1%.' – CE, 92/100
