The Avondale Camissa Rosé is a charming cuvée with aromas of fine rose petals, fragrant lemon geranium and fresh red fruits. On the palate, it reveals delicious nuances of Turkish honey and aromatic lemon zest, which harmonize wonderfully with the perfect acidity of the wine. Although Camissa may appear sweet on the palate at first, this rosé ends in a completely dry finish.
Camissa is the Khoi San name for Table Mountain and means "place of sweet water". Avondale named this fresh Blanc de Noir "Camissa" in gratitude for the fresh spring water that irrigates the farm's vineyards.

The nutmeg grapes were completely destemmed and then left on the skins in stainless steel tanks for 3-4 days until natural fermentation began, with stirring once or twice a day. The nutmeg was then pressed and fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. Mourvèdre and Grenache were pressed all over the bunch, left to rest and then fermented in French oak barrels with a capacity of 500 litres per barrel. The grapes matured separately on the lees for 12 months before being bottled blended.
