Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, Western Cape, South Africa
Great depth in an under appreciated varietal. Fuller bodied. Great rich texture, chocolate, briar, mixed black fruit and banana. Layers to this wine.

Smoky and earthy. Not bad, not great. Blackberry and cedar. Paired well with a spicy dish.

The wildest tasting wine I’ve ever tried. Rank with hickory and horseflesh when opened, two hours later the barnyard clears and this lovely red-fruited, dusty-tannined, acid-driven wine emerges. Black cherry-colored. Wouldn’t have been able to tell you the age of it. Not at all oxidized. The bottle really tried to scare me away.

Medium bodied, light forest fruits and some tannins on the palette, slightly fruity and oaky on the nose.
An inoffensive wine, nothing standout though, missing the trademark Pinotage robustness and spicyness.
