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.

    1. Grease 28 cm x 11.5. loaf tins using shortening.

    2. Heat oven to 180C (350F).

    3. Cream sugar, shortening and margarine together in a bowl.

    4. Add flour, salt, grated coconut, raisins and cherries, add nutmeg and mix well.

    5. Add almond essence, milk and enough water to get a firm dough.

    6. Divide the dough into two and fill loaf tins.

    7. Using a knife, cut a diagonal criss-cross pattern on the top. Mix sugar with water and brush the top with it.
