Pinotage Reserve

This wine will pair well with BBQ ribs and beef burgers done on the grill.

It was a cool, wet growing season that replenished the water reserves. We started harvesting the first week of February and ended the last week of March 2021. This harvest had some challenges with COVID-19 sale restrictions, lockdown, and some rain that made planning difficult. Overall, the quality of the wines shows lots of promise.

After malolactic fermentation, the wine matured in 5% new and 95% second/third-fill barrels for 14 months.

4 days in open fermenters with the cap punched through by hand every two hours. The fermentation temperature was between 25-28°C.

Since planting the first vineyards in Stellenbosch more than thirty years ago, we have become one of the leading red wine producers in South Africa with an unrivalled love for Pinotage. For us, winemaking is a way of life and a privilege. We love what we do, and our hope is for consumers to share in the same thrill and excitement we experience when enjoying this local legend. Our specialty is showcasing the country’s heritage varietal, with which we strive to tell a story with each of these wines. Make yourself at home, fill your glass, and join us on this journey.
