False Bay
Pinotage
Light, supple red. Awful nose, like a skunk or garbage almost. More pleasing on palate with some rich fruit and silky tannins.

Perfectly pleasant and drinkable, if unmemorable. Smooth and mild, not great nose but nice finish.

Aug 21st, 2017A bit "funky" on the nose. Much better on the pallet. Dark cherry with some chocolate notes. Smooth and balanced tannins. Acceptable weeknight option.
