Pinotage

Diemersfontein The Original Pinotage pairs well with rich dishes such as lamb casseroles and Malay curries. It is also an excellent match for chocolate desserts like molten chocolate lava cake or chocolate pecan brownies, making it a versatile choice for both savory and sweet pairings​.

The grapes for this Pinotage are sourced from vineyards in the Wellington region, which benefit from a Mediterranean climate conducive to grape ripening.

The winemaking process includes cold soaking the grapes for 12 hours before fermentation and maturation in stainless steel tanks with toasted staves for six months. This method enhances the coffee and chocolate notes that define this wine​.

For three generations the Sonnenberg family have been creating Diemersfontein moments on this iconic estate in Wellington. What started as a family retreat, is today the home of the world-class Diemersfontein range of wines, countryside hospitality, backed by a story of upliftment and empowerment. Stories of an iconic family, unparalleled terroir, the ‘accidental’ birth of an iconic South African wine, a brand bestowed with illustrious accolades and true transformation in the wine industry will be part of your journey in creating your own Diemersfontein moment.
