Fruit salad in a bottle Seriously tempting!

‘I remember my first kiss. I was ten. She sat in front of me in class.
She was blond, flaxen haired, porcelain skinned…beautiful.
Her father owned a brewery. My father approved.
But I had to wait eleven years to find my first love.
It was summer. She was stunning, natural and so pure.
The passion still burns inside. A lifelong love affair.
Still exciting, fun, and oh so fruity!
Aussie wine……my first love.
My mother waits for a grandchild. My father approves.'

Exploding with fruit flavours (citrus, grapefruit, melon), but just a little bit nutty!

Yum yum - A mouthwatering fruit salad of a wine, with a limey backbone, a twist of zing, and a splash of texture.
