Swartland Pinotage
A serious, impressive, complex and elegant Pinotage, the best I've tried. Red fruited and notably spicy, with sappy pomegranate and red berry flavors on a streamlined, tightly wound palate. The texture is somewhat grainy, with tannins that dance on the tongue, giving good grip and focus as well as making it a nice match for food. Very well done.

Jul 19th, 2019Pinot-like red berry style, medium bodied with ripe fruit but at the same time a bit thin.
