Jess

This sophisticated dry Rose is named after the owner's eldest daughter, Jessica Lee.

The wine is characterized by its crisp style and fruity palate. The wine is light bodied and lovely to enjoy with a meal or by itself.

The Jess over delivers on quality and has become a favourite.

Available in 375ml and 750ml under Stelvin.
