Tasting Notes
This is a gorgeous, single-vineyard pinotage with aromas and flavors of crushed blackberries and plums. Full-bodied with round, creamy tannins and an intense and very rich finish. It goes on for minutes with spice and earth undertones. An opulent yet fresh example of this. Drink or hold.

Dark purple red with violet hue and black core. Opulent nose with distinct fruit, blackberries, black cherries, stewed plums, hints of liquorice and violets. On the palate excellent balance, ripe tannins with good structure, freshness, well expressed fruit and fine gingerbread spices. A wine with power, yet elegant with great precision and very good potential for future ageing.

Outstanding intensity of blackberries and blue slate on the nose. Medium body, round and juicy tannins and a succulent, savory finish with orange-peel undertones. Subtle pinotage. Drink or hold.

A rich pinotage with aromas of plums, roasted meat, baking spices and rosemary. It’s full-bodied with sleek tannins. Polished and racy with crisp acidity. Pretty chocolate, mocha and spice notes on the flavorful and intense finish. Drink or hold.
