So many intriguing things about this wine.
🍇 For starters, as an award-winning Pinotage, it’s interesting to concede that it is only 86% Pinotage. In fact, there is as much NOT-Pinotage in here as is legally allowable, while still being called Pinotage.

🗺 But that aside, it is an exceptional wine, made with fruit from (mostly) dry-farmed bushvine Pinotage, planted up on the foothills of the Paardeberg. 🔬Grapes were destemmed, crushed, and cold macerated. The wine was separated from skins immediately after fermentation, and sent straight into barrel for 13 months (15% new). —
