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.

Inte lik nån Pinotage jag druckit tidigare. Fruktdriven och sval med drag av örtagård och blommor.

Primärt rejält strama toner men sedan kommer lite jordgubb mm. Gott men pricken över i saknas

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

16/20 (88/100) Светло-рубиновый цвет и легкомысленный аромат малины, вишни и ванили обещают легкое вино, но первое впечатление обманчиво. На вкус оно плотное, с довольно высокой кислотностью и невозможно вязкими танинами. Необычно. #capewine2018

Mkt sekundära aromer. Lite oxiderad doft. Ganska vild men saftig i munnen. Blåbär, sadel och kaffe. Kul med bespottad druva i naturlig tolkning. Men inte superbra resultat tyvärr.
