“Blush” is how we’re describing our Bloos, while some people use the term rosé, which describes the darker pink style wines on the market. Hermanuspietersfontein‘s blush wine isn’t a by-product made from red wines. They start to make this wine starts in the vineyards on their cool-climate Sondagskloof BWI Champion Conservation farm where they pick from specific rows with the objective to make a wine with a difference – South Africa’s only Bordeaux-style blush wine. The result is a light pink, dry wine that’s best served chilled and goes well with sushi, oysters and other healthy light dishes. Given her long legs, she’s popular amongst both ladies and gentlemen. And no chaps, it’s not a social risk to explore a relationship with Bloos – you’ll enjoy being seen with her!
