Easy for someone who loves their wine on the sweeter side, easy for you because we bring it to the door. Birthday, sorry-I'm-late, just-because. Done.

If your person likes things on the sweeter end, this is squarely their lane.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it comes from
1659 is named after a genuinely cool date. On 2 February 1659, the very first wine was pressed from Cape grapes in South Africa. That year became the badge for this easy-drinking range out of the Western Cape winelands, made by winemaker Renier van Deventer. The Sweet Rosé is a blend built around Muscat de Alexandrie with Colombar, Chenin Blanc and a splash of Pinotage, which is where all that ripe berry fruit comes from.
