Rooiland Pinotage, Kaapzicht

South Africa's very own grape variety and the red gravel soil in the pinotage blocks gives these vineyards their name — Rooiland, meaning red land.

Tasting note

85% Pinotage and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark depth of black plum with an opulent, slightly reductive nose of black cherry, mulberry and stewed plum. The oak is very subtle and integrated, playing to the strengths of the fruit purity and precision. Texturally there is impressive focus, balanced finesse and an elegant mouthfeel punctuated with soft supple black fruits and oak spice.
