Description

The 2016 Pinotage has a deep, purple red color. Red cherries, strawberries and ripe plums dominate the nose, while careful use of French oak add sweet vanilla and cedar wood flavors to the wine. The ripe red fruit and sweet vanilla follows on the palate, fresh acidity adds elegance while the ripe tannins promise good aging potential.
