Wolf & Woman Grenache Rosé is made from grapes yielded by a single bush-vine vineyard, which grows in the Paardeberg region in granitic soils. All of the grapes were picked early in the morning, packed in crates and allowed to spend 24 hours in a cold room. The following day the grapes were pressed gently and as whole clusters to obtain the perfect colour. The free run juice was then drained into a stainless-steel tank to settle for 24 hours. No enzymes were used during the settling process. The juice was racked from the thick lees to 500-litre old French oak barrels, after which the wine fermented naturally in the barrel. After fermentation, the wine was given a low dose of sulphur and left on the lees. The wine spent a total of 6 months in old barrels before it was blended and bottled at 12%. (Bottle size 750ml)
Nose: Aromas of cherry, pomegranate and watermelon.
Palate: Flavourful and crisp.
Finish: A long dry finish.
Winemaker Jolandie Fouché was born in Cape Town and raised in the Swartland, where she spent the larger part of her childhood roaming the farm and falling in love with the vineyards. After matriculating, she studied towards a B.Agric degree at Elsenburg Agricultural Training Institute, followed by fascinating harvest seasons in Australia and California. After more than a decade of earning her stripes in the South African industry, Jolandie decided to turn her attention to her passion project, Wolf & Woman Wines, full-time. These days, she lives back home in the Swartland and, when not in the cellar or vineyards, you can find her somewhere outdoors exploring nature and going on all sorts of adventures with her family.
