This is the bottle you grab when the food is a little spicy and the night is a little long. A South African white with a honeyed edge, just sweet enough to feel like a treat, with enough zip to keep it bright and not sugary. Pour it cold on a warm Nairobi evening, hand a glass to someone who says they don't really drink wine, and watch them ask for a top-up. Easy company, no homework required.
Stick your nose in and you get white flowers, green apple and a real hit of granadilla, that passion-fruit perfume you know well. Behind it, a soft whisper of honey, which is where the name earns its keep. The sip is light to medium, soft and a touch creamy, with ripe peach and melon rolling through. Then the acidity steps in right at the end and tidies everything up, so the sweetness never turns cloying. Gentle, fruity, and properly refreshing when it's cold.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This is a Bruce Jack wine out of South Africa. Bruce Jack is one of the country's most respected names, the only South African brand to land on The World's Most Admired Wine Brands list four years running, so the friendly price tag hides a serious pedigree. Secret Safari is their fun, approachable range, built for sharing rather than swirling and pondering. The Honey White is the easygoing one of the bunch, made to be opened tonight.
