Deep dark colour. This wine shows notes of dark plum and black berries with herbal notes of thyme lingering in the background. Black fruit enters the palate with freshness flowing into fine, chalky tannins on the mid palate.

Just outside Stellenbosch lies the rolling hills of the Bottelary region, creating a unique terrain for the cultivation of Pinotage. Well-established 25-year-old bush vine vineyards with access to supplementary irrigation. South-west facing slopes and grown on decomposed granite. Harvest commenced on the 20th of February. Grapes were harvested at 25°B with a total acid of 7.5 g/ℓ and a pH of 3.3. Yield: 4 tons/ha.
