Winemaker`s Comments:
Concentrated blackberry, vanilla and chocolate flavours, which are well supported by a velvety soft oak integration, a dark ruby colour and soft tannins; this elegant Pinotage can be enjoyed now, it will reach its optimum in 3-5 years, an ideal accompaniment with beef, venison, pasta and cheese.
