Dark red with violet hue. Prominent plum, cassis, smoked beacon aromas that are complimented with hints of vanilla. On the palate, it is a medium bodied wine packed with strawberry, raspberry and spicy flavours. Soft matured tannin with a fruity finish. An easy, approachable Pinotage that can be enjoyed now, and as the wine matures for the next three to four years.

Wine maker notes

The grapes were hand-picked when the crop reached maturity at 23,4-24,5° Brix by the beginning of February. In the cellar, the juice fermented on the skins for 10 days at 82.4°F. After malolactic fermentation the wine was matured in second-fill casks for 18 months. The wine was bottle-matured for a further 18 months before release.
