  9. Serve with roast vegetable such as potatoes, carrots and broccoli and mint sauce & Enjoy!

Elegant aromas of red apple, lemongrass and freshly baked bread together with hints of strawberry, citrus and quince on the palate. Crisp and fresh with lively acidity and fine persistent bubbles.

This very ripe style of Bacchus from the Kit’s Coty Estate has guava, melon and peach aromas with background oak influence. The palate is pure and focused with more tropical flavours and an exceptional length.

This dry wine has aromas of anise, white lily, pear drops and nougat with a silky mouthfeel and a zesty lime finish. 

Apple, lemon and stone fruit aromas with some toasty and buttery notes and a citrus streak. Delicate spice and creamy, textural richness from time spent in barrel.
