The Opstal Blush Syrah Viognier is a very special rosé wine! The two grape varieties Syrah and Viognier were harvested at the same time, pressed together and fermented. This rather unusual method allowed the Syrah's lush cherry, strawberry and raspberry aromas to marry early on with the Viognier's intense peach and apricot aromas and transfer a stunning balance to the wine. Its wonderful salmon tint in the glass completes this delicious feast for the senses!

Treatment in the cellar

Syrah and Viognier were read at the same time and pressed and fermented together. This rather unusual method allowed the lush aromas of the Syrah to blend with the intense aroma profile of the Viognier at an early stage and transfer a stunning balance to the wine. The wine gets its beautiful salmon tint in the glass from the four-hour contact on the skin.
