Babylonstoren Mourvèdre Rosé 750ml

Estate Summary

Set against the dramatic backdrop of Simonsberg in the Cape Winelands, Babylonstoren is one of South Africa’s most distinctive estates, known for its holistic farm-to-table philosophy and beautifully crafted wines. Their Mourvèdre Rosé reflects this ethos — elegant, expressive and rooted in the vineyard, with a focus on purity and balance.

Winemaking & Style

Made from 100% Mourvèdre, the grapes are harvested early to retain freshness and natural acidity. Gentle pressing with minimal skin contact gives the wine its delicate colour, while cool fermentation in stainless steel preserves aromatics and precision. There is no oak influence, ensuring a fresh, dry and refined Provençal-style rosé.

Tasting Notes

Pale pink in colour, this rosé offers aromas of wild strawberry, cranberry and pomegranate, complemented by notes of rose petal, citrus peel and subtle herbal nuances. The palate is crisp and dry, showing flavours of red berries and fresh stone fruit, supported by bright acidity and a gentle savoury edge. The finish is clean, elegant and refreshing, with a lingering mineral note.

Food Pairing

Perfect with grilled seafood, salads, Mediterranean dishes, sushi and light summer fare. Also ideal as a refined aperitif.
