CWG Beeslaar Pinotage 2024
R2700,00
This was a beautiful vintage for Pinotage from Stellenbosch. We grow low-yielding Pinotage in bush vines, with almost no irrigation. The expression that we get from shale soils in the Stellenbosch region has a unique character that is much more feminine that normal.
A full-bodied Pinotage with structure and elegance. It has floral and black cherries on the nose, which carry through to dark chocolate and Asian spice on the palate, and end in a savoury finish.
Dense crimson in colour, showing confident extraction. The nose is perfumed and layered, with black and red cherry, plum and raspberry, complemented by baking spice, subtle rose-petal lift and savoury Fynbos notes. The palate is supple and luscious, supported by fresh acidity and bold, granular tannins that frame flavours of cherry kirsch, plum and
boysenberry, with a slight herbal edge. Succulent yet composed, finishing long, dry and savoury, with excellent ageing potential.
