Diesel Pinotage

Pairs exceptionally well with spicy Indian curries or red meats on the braai (BBQ).

The grapes are grown in Stellenbosch's Oakleaf and Hutton soils, from bush vines. The 2022 growing season was marked by ideal winter conditions, contributing to even growth. The season saw high disease pressure due to unexpected rainfall, but moderate temperatures throughout helped the grapes reach optimal ripeness​.

After destemming, the berries were carefully sorted, and fermentation took place in open casks with regular punchdowns for 5 days. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks before being aged for 21 months in new French oak barrels​.
