RODENBACH Caractère Rouge was developed in 2011 in collaboration with top chef Viki Geunes (2 Michelin stars). This exclusive beer is created by adding an extra six months’ fermenting maceration with cherries, raspberries and cranberries to beer that has already undergone two years’ maturation in oak casks.

The aromas are delicate and complex, with notes of almonds and autolysis, whilst on the palate it shows savoury notes, with flavours of green apple, sea salt and toasty yeast. The extra body and structure comes from the fermentation in barrel.

The Cape Vintage Reserve from De Krans is deep, rich, Port style fortified wine. Portuguese varietals were planted in Calitzdorp during the late 1970’s with Tinta Barocca being the first to find its way to the Klein Karoo. Now Calitzdorp is known as South Africa’s Port Capital with these varietals leading the way.

Pale gold with an intense and complex aroma of ripe golden fruit, blending tropical aromas with crystallized orange, plus hints of spices. On the palate is full bodied with a mature luscious tone and finishes with a balanced freshness and a long lasting finish.

Quality 10 year old Tawny in a smart 50cl bottle, Tawny port is handy as it doesn`t require decanting. "The brightness of this wine comes across in a glaze of sweetness, like the brutlée on the top of the crème.

Aged in excess of 18 years in solera, this oloroso has an old gold colour with a wellrounded pungent nutty nose showing hints of spice, old leather and coffee. Immediately nutty on the palate, but with a tangy freshness that belies its age. Long and wellbalanced with a crisp finish.

The taste is predominantly sweet, but is balanced by both acidity and the increased level of alcohol. Often served chilled or over ice as an aperitif, poured over melon or with various dessert. Plessis Pineau des Charentes has a deep, golden colour. On the nose there are notes of fig, almond, prune, rancio, honey and spices.

Powerful aromatic bouquet. Dark berry fruits on the nose and mouth. Great layers of complexity and flavour. Plump raisin, spice, eucalyptus notes as well as the berry fruit flavours. An elegant and finely balanced wine.

This is a very youthful LBV, dark in colour with notes of red fruit, chocolate and spice on the nose. The palate adds an extra dimension and shows notes of rich mocha, black cherry and strawberry. Oak ageing adds a hint of vanilla.

This all-natural Limoncello by Bepi Tosolini is made from lemons harvested from the Amalfi coast, considered to be the best area for the lemons. The colour in this Limoncello is a lovely yellow and has a very natural lemon flavour. It is nothing like some of the more, ahem, luminous Limoncellos you see around. Drink ice cold after a meal.

Briottet`s Rose Liqueur brings out all the delicacy of the rose, since it is made by distilling rose petals. Extra-fine white sugar is added, and this liqueur -- which is both elegant and subtle -- is just about ready to be drunk.

Opens with ripe vinefruit and concentrated blackcurrants, and evolves into a deeply satisfying full aroma with hints of green spice. Silky, voluptuous and very ripe initially, with a lingering viscosity and long concentrated flavour, perfect balance between the sweetness and acidity. Piquant.

Produced by macerating the finest and freshest fruit from France.
