Kanonkop
The name Kanonkop was derived from a kopje (hillock) from which a cannon was fired in the 17th Century to alert farmers in outlying areas that sailing ships plying the waters between Europe and the Far East had entered Table Bay for a stopover at Cape Town.
Description
Kanonkop Pinotage is renowned for its deep ruby color and complex aroma profile, typically featuring ripe red and black fruits such as cherries, plums, and blackberries. Subtle notes of mocha, vanilla, and spice often complement the fruit, leading to a well-structured palate with firm tannins and a lingering finish.
Food Pairing
This robust Pinotage pairs exceptionally well with grilled meats, game dishes, and hearty stews. Its bold flavors also complement rich, mature cheeses.
