Guillermo Pinotage
Swartland, Coastal Region, Western Cape, South Africa
Pale to Medium ruby. Lovely smoky aroma, cherry, coffee, caramel, roasted nuts, medium tannin, medium acidity. A bit chewy on the palate, medium body with tannin expanding on the palate, some buttery American oak. Good complexity and acidity for food.

Une belle claque, avec une structure étonnamment puissante pour ce que je connais et j'attends d'un pinotage habituellement !

Nice, oak, smoke followed by fruit nose. Has strong tannins. Needs air and time. But a very good wine. Cherries and berries in the mouth. Reads almost like a CabSav. I like it.

Really like this Pinotage. Ruby purple in color. It comes across rich and flavorful. Red berries with smoke and spice. Very smooth with a slight tannin bite, but balanced overall.

Aug 6th, 2018First Pinotage I ever had. It's light body and aromatic nature speaks of its heritage, but it's darker bolder fruits made the combination interesting. This wine had complexity and spoke well of its maker. I unfortunately need to try it again, I didn't take good notes and am logging this basically as a reminder.

A light, refreshing red. This became a fast favorite.

Aromas of extracted cherry and some rum raisins. More tannins and some acidic aftertaste and finish that lingers a while.
