Gotta love a dark horse contender - #Pinotage to make the (sometimes barely quaffable) variety proud: spicy red fruit, bit o cola, nice earthiness and some acidic snap. I'd pair this with smoky ribs, blood sausage campfire.

Most interesting wine I have tasted. Very true to the earthy Tobacco spice with smokey aromas for days.
