Aaldering Women of the World Magnum Pinotage Rosé 2024
R550,00
Medium purple in colour. Juicy plum and dark fruit aromas are backed by red berries, mocha, and dark chocolate. Hints of forest floor and savoury mushroom aromas add depth to the enticing nose. Full bodied in nature, with plush, velvety tannins that are linear and lengthy support the dark fruit flavours that are backed with a lively acidity that adds length on the end of the palate. A beautiful example of the versatility of the cultivar that is unadulterated by any wood contact nor maturation in wooden barrels.

In the vineyard
Moderate weather throughout the season, and specifically during harvest time, resulted in grapes ripening slower, while developing exceptional colour and flavour. The harvest began two weeks later than normal due to unusually cool weather
conditions throughout the season. High winds during flowering did lead to a reduction in yields (especially Pinotage) but resulted in smaller berries and bunches with concentrated wines as a result. Post-harvest rains allowed the vines to recover quickly from the harvest and build up reserves for next growth season. To summarize, a tricky vintage that kept winemakers and viticulturists on their toes and resulted in outstanding wines of great character.
Cultivar
100% Pinotage
Food Pairing
