Waterkloof, Circumstance Cape Coral Mourvèdre Rosé Magnum 2021
R 240 per bottle
A magnum of this refreshing, elegant Mourvèdre Rosé is perfect for the festive season. Notes of fresh red berries, pomegranate and raspberry are accompanied by refreshing wet stone and flint. This wine has a racy acidity with a dry, lingering finish. Served chilled, it makes for a perfect sundowner or pop it on the table for a flawless pairing to a light, summer meal. Wrapped in white tissue paper and tied with a red bow, it's a great gift too.

Taittinger, Comtes de Champagne Rosé 2007
R 3,995 per bottle
'The 2007 Comtes de Champagne Rosé is a total knock-out... This is about as good as it gets,' writes Antonio Galloni of Vinous. His sentiments are shared by the likes of Decanter and Wine Advocate, all of which have high-praise and scores for this Champagne. The 2007 is a fully matured vintage comprised of 30% Chardonnay and 70% Pinot Noir. This harmonious rosé offers excellent ageing potential.

From an old vineyard site in the Bottelary Hills, the Hartenberg Tenacity Riesling 2018 lives up to its name.

Cape of Good Hope, Laing Sémillon 2021
R 130 per bottle
The Laing Sémillon is created from Henk Laing's farm, Trekpoort. It is located on the Skurfberg Mountain overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and consists of vines around 50-years-old. Although the 2021 vintage is yet to be reviewed and scored, this Sémillon has always impressed us. The 2020 vintage received 5 stars from Platter's Guide with an incredible 97 points. At R130, the Laing Sémillon offers unbeatable value and is a no-brainer purchase.
