Aromatic nose of ripe black plums and sweet cinnamon spice. The dark fruit carries on to the palate and develops into a slightly less intense black cherry note. The linear acidity makes the wine feel alive from the first sip to the last, and the plush makes for a fantastic broad and fruity mouthfeel with soft plush tannins.

Product Description

An excellent example of a plush fruit-driven Pinotage. The fruit is prominent and juicy but not overly so and shows wonderful freshness. The result of the opulent fruit is a nicely rounded and broad palate with very soft tannin. The unsung hero in this wine is the acidity which is wonderfully restrained and makes the wine feel lively from start to finish. Clever use of oak also contributes to the wonderful mouthfeel and adds a subtle spicy note prominent on the finish.
