Description
This Pinotage shows vibrant aromas of cherry and raspberry notes, with a hint of cedar and vanilla from the oak maturation. The palate shows ample red fruit and a delicious savoury note. 4% Grenache adds vibrancy and complexity to the blend. The Pinotage grapes come from a 25-year-old dry-farmed bush-vine vineyard. The soils are rich in granite which tends to play a crucial role in creating a rich texture in the wine. The vineyard is quite highly elevated and the wind naturally keeps the crop low.
