Mourvèdre tends to bring some muscle to a blend, but this South African wine, famously the official rosé of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, is big on charm, with an appropriately floral nose of alpine strawberry and rose petals, the palate offering pomegranate and ripe watermelon, supported by a crunchy cranberry freshness. Try pairing this with smoked trout, horseradish and dill.
