I haven't had a Pinotage in ages as it is not easy to find here in Mexico but this was exactly what I expected. Great full fruity flavour.

Surprisingly well aged for only 2 years. Raspberry and plum with a touch of spicy cassis. Slight mint makes it quite refreshing and rounds out the fruit. Not a big fan of mainstream pinotage (due to the often young, too bright fruit) but am very happily enjoying this.

Full body and smokey. Much better aerated than not, but still very enjoyable. Mature palette.

Pleasantly surprised - Smokey, blackberry and plum fruit with some bramble. Fairly balanced tannins and acid, high alcohol.
