Nederburg Cabernet Sauvignon Rose

Nederburg Cabernet Sauvignon Rose

This beautiful rose wine is made entirely from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, fruit driven, refreshing with abundance of berry flavours and a pleasant long finish.

Description

Perfect for this time of year! Collect the sloes in October and the Sloe Gin will be ready in time for Christmas.

Method

  1. 1

    1. Once you have picked the sloes, prick them all with a pin.

    2. Add the gin, sugar and sloes into a large glass sealed container (not plastic), shake well and then place in a cool room.

    3. Shake regularly so the mixture all blends together and the sugar eventually disolves.

    4. About a week before Christmas pour the liquid through a sieve or muslin bag to separate the fruit and the liquid.

    5. Then put the Sloe Gin into a bottle and use as required.
