My love affair with Pinotage continues! It’s been some time, however I’m again within the saddle and couldn’t consider a greater option to get again on the horse. There can usually be a definite rubbery aroma and style with Pinotage, which in all equity I truly fairly like, however the lack of it on this specific instance may be very refreshing and appears to open up the remainder of the wine, exposing nuances which might be usually exhausting to seek out in Pinotage.
Upon opening, one’s senses are assaulted by woody aromas of darkish berries and vanilla, with a delicate, virtually confected background be aware of prune juice. The palate is broad and various, with an enormous flavour profile, consisting of candy darkish fruit and a few perfumed crimson fruit. Massive and daring, with respectable construction, tremendous, ripe tannins and an extended end.
Made for barbecue pulled pork and Monterey jack cheese. No decant mandatory. Serve at 17-19’c.
