Food & Wine Pairing
Pinotage
This Pinotage is rooted in the Breede River Valley; grown in lime rich karoo soils with fairly high clay content - enabling growers to use regulated deficit irrigation to control vine vigour and berry size. After a strict vineyard selection the fruit was harvested from middle February to first week in March. Malolactic fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine was matured on wood for 4 months to add weight and complexity before stabilization and bottling.
Tasting Notes
A deep purple tint on the rim with delicious flavours of ripe strawberry, banana, juicy plums and rich, red cherry. Produced in an early drinking style with well-integrated wood and a soft, smooth finish.
Enjoy now with roast beef, guinea fowl, roast chicken, stews, lamb pizza and pasta.
