Bright red with a purple hue, this Pinotage is rich and bold with aromas of plums, blackberries, layers of liquorice, smoke, roasted nuts, and vanilla. The palate offers plums, red and black cherries, dark chocolate, and spicy oak, balanced by plush ripe tannins and lively acidity, culminating in a long, elegant finish.

Vineyard & Terroir
Sourced from 63-year-old unirrigated bush vines grown on the Kanonkop estate. Cooler vintage conditions result in softer tannins and approachable wines with excellent aging potential.

Winemaking
