More Information

In the cellar

The wine was fermented on the skins in open fermenters at temperatures of 25 - 28®C. After fermentation, the grapes were pressed gently in traditional basket presses. Heavy toasted French oak is used with 15% American oak.

In the vineyard

The Pinotage grapes for this wine come from the Devon Valley, with nutrient rich and deep soils. The grapes were hand harvested at optimum ripeness, and that is when the winemaker feels the degree of sugar is high enough whilst the flavours in the grape have developed substantially, with no bitter tannins left in the skins.

Ageing

This wine will drink well now, it can be aged for a 5 years from vintage, if it is stored in the correct conditions.

Cultivar

Pinotage

Food Pairing

It will go well with smoked red meats or game such as springbok, ostrich and kudu. Also enjoy slightly chilled with desserts like a dark berry pavlova or with double cream chocolate mousse.

About the Wine Estate

Seymour Pritchard bought the 10-hectare farm, Malvern Heights, in 1969 from Colonel JW Billingham, who had named the farm after the rolling hills around Malvern in his native England. When winemaking came into Seymour’s sights in the mid-1980’s, France was still the epicentre of the wine universe. He then added some “French Flair” to the name and changed it to Clos Malverne, due to the homestead on the farm being reminiscent of a Clos in France.
