After releasing their Turkish Delight Rosé, Weltevrede Estate have come up with three recipes to add flavour to your summer.
Weltevrede Estate’s tasty Turkish Delight Rosé is said to have the Summer spirit of an off-beat romance. The rosé is a fusion of Gewürztraminer, a seductive cultivar with some spicy German swagger and Pinot Noir, an alluringly serious varietal with gorgeous hidden depths, creating the semi-sweet rosé that sings of litchi, rose petals and candy floss.
This is how Weltevrede Estate suggests you get whimsical with your Turkish Delight Rosé this Summer.
