Region:Western Cape
Pinotage is a special grape variety in that it is a combination of Pinot Noir and Cinsault, exclusively planted in South Africa, and tastes nothing like either variety individually. For this bottling, we've teamed it up with Shiraz. Each variety was harvested and fermented separately and then brought together in the winery cellar to create a wine packed with fruit character, masses of drinkability and an easy-to-enjoy profile that can be paired with a wide variety of main dishes or a selection of nibbles.

The wine must express where it comes from, you must be able to taste the soil, the quality of the grapes and lastly, hopefully, something from me as the winemaker - you will end up with a wine destined for greatness.
"This blend changes each harvest so that we keep a consistent style but always showcase the best that each season has to offer. For this release, after numerous trial blends, we settled on a 50/50 split of each variety. Big on fruit and layered with spice and with a long, well-structured finish." - Ryno Booysen, Winemaker.
