Vinum Pinotage

The grapes come mainly from a vineyard around 25 years old in northern Stellenbosch, on alluvial soils with a high proportion of weathered granite. After hand-harvesting in 20-kg crates, the grapes were manually sorted, destemmed and fermented without crushing; spontaneous fermentation has not been documented. The wine was matured in small Burgundy casks of 228 and 300 litres, mostly second-, third- and fourth-fill, with 5% first-fill oak. Medium-bodied, it shows strawberry, mulberry, wild berries, dark forest fruit and rosewater. The acidity is more pronounced as a result of the vintage, the tannins are grippy and the finish fresh.
