Created in 1925, Pinotage was born from the union of Pinot Noir and Cinsault – or rather, “the debutant from Burgundy meets the farmer from the Rhone.” At times, the less refined farmer’s qualities tend to dominate Pinotage. However, fruit from the warmer Paardeberg and Bovlei areas of Paarl achieve the sugar levels required to produce softer, more elegant, more fruit driven wine. This Pinotage presents a nose suggestive of Oregon Pinot Noir; dried red berry fruit dominates the palate, all supported by soft balanced tannins.
James Suckling: 90 Points
"Dark berries, plums and peppercorns on the nose. Medium-bodied with creamy tannins. Generous and fruit-forward with a compact and equally rich and fruity finish with some peppery undertones. Drink or hold. Screw cap." James Suckling, 90 Points
