This perennial prizewinner rollicks with generous fruit
flavours: pineapple, pear, grapefruit and orange, with a flourish of mint. It’s fleshy
and a touch sweet,
yet zesty, with a juicy, mineral-driven finish. With just 8.7 per cent alcohol, it’s a perfect choice for lunch. Excellent length. www.flatrockcellars.com.
