Reviews of Buitenverwachting Blanc de Noir Rosé 2018
The Buitenverwachting Blanc de Noir Rosé was far better than the food.
Special wine for couples.
Clear pink colour. Hints of chewing gum with strawberry flavour. A Buitenverwachting Blanc de Noir Rosé is never a light experience.
Its intense colour attracted me. Smell of strawberry gum. The mild flavour and the chocolate were present.
