If you follow the Easter tradition of choosing fish over meat on Good Friday, make new memories and enjoy Roodeberg Classic Rosé with family and friends while tucking into delicious baked kingklip or hake.

This gorgeous salmon-pink wine pairs beautifully with fish. Whether you opt for the more luxurious kingklip, usually kept for special occasions, or hake, the more pocket friendly, everyday favourite, it’s a match made in heaven.

Throughout the world, Easter is deeply connected with culinary traditions and for many it is customary to eat fish instead of meat on Good Friday.

While pickled fish is the food of choice over Easter particularly in Cape communities, foodie Elmarie Berry serves up a delicious alternative with her light and zesty baked fish, mint & lemon yoghurt recipe.

Roodeberg Classic Rosé 2020 ticks all the boxes with subtle aromas of strawberry, candy floss and raspberry intertwined with hints of rose petals and Turkish delight.

Roodeberg Classic Rosé 2020 is available at leading stores countrywide or the Roodeberg Emporium at R80 a bottle. For online sales visit www.kwvemporium.co.za/
