About the Wine

While Pinotage shares many traits with Pinot Noir, there is an earthy brambleness that distinguishes it from its more famous cousin. Dense aromas of dark berries and leather mingle with underlying notes of spice and sandalwood. This inky, nearly opaque Pinotage has a concentrated depth of bold flavors that envelop the palate. Tiers of black cherry, cassis and black plum are enhanced by a hints of sassafras, black pepper and forest floor. The defined dark berried fruit is in complete harmony with the firm tannins, tight acidity and lengthy finish.

The layered textural complexities and intensity pair beautifully with exotic spices, Italian food, as well as smoked and grilled meats. Prior to release, this wine was patiently cellared until optimal, yet it’s structure allow it to cellar for years to come.
