PINOTAGE 2018
GRAPE VARIETY: Pinotage
WINE OF ORIGIN: Cape Coast

VINEYARDS:
One of the first to arrive at the cellar in Feb. Fruit are grown on
high-quality sites around Swartland and Durbanville. Dryland bushvines were selected for complexity and concentration and the coolerclimate site to provide complexity, concentration and intensity. The
cool climate and contrasting warmer sites express the truly unique
terroir of South Africa.

VINIFICATION:
Handpicked and sorted then crushed and fermented in open top,
stainless steel tanks. Manual punch-downs for fine tannin and colour
extraction. 50% stored in stainless steel tanks and 50% in older
barrels for maturation.

TASTING NOTES:
Rich, ripe and vibrant red and black currants, spice and plumbs.
A classic example of South Africa’s very own grape varietal.

FOOD PAIRING SUGGESTION:
In South Africa we love to braai. Pinotage is truly South African, so
serve it with your best grilled meats, pork belly and even slightly
spicy curries.
