    2020 Pinotage, Groot Constantia

    £2495

    Aromas of ripe strawberry and raspberry combine with black cherry and plum while delicate use of French oak adds a hint of cacao. The bold, ripe fruit flavours follow on the palate and the fine tannin structure ensures a long, elegant finish.

    The vineyards are located on the steep valley on the eastern side of Table Mountain. The grapes for this wine were grown in various blocks that range from 39 metres to 160 metres above sea level. All the slopes are south to south-east facing. The climate is Mediterranean with cooling breezes from the Atlantic Ocean encouraging balance and complexity in the grapes. The average rainfall is approximately 1,100mm per annum, which nourishes the predominantly Cartref and Glenrosa soil – a gravelly soil with low fertility. The climate, combined with the cool southern slopes and deep mountain soils provide the ideal setting for the making of this top-quality wine.

  • 2019 Pinotage ‘1900’, Spioenkop WinesRed Wine

    2019 Pinotage ‘1900’, Spioenkop Wines

    £2750

    A fruit-driven style of Pinotage, with a generous array of red cherry, violet, grenadine and strawberry underpinned by freshly picked black plum, graphite, black olives and spice. Elegant and smooth with a stony freshness and a satisfying, satin-textured finish.

    The grapes come from the Bottelary Hills ward of Stellenbosch, in the Western Cape. The westerly facing vineyard is located at 300 metres’ elevation and is planted on granite and sandstone soils which offer free-draining properties. The climate is generally hot and dry; however maritime influences from False Bay to the south provide moderating sea-breezes, which help to keep the vineyards healthy and impart balancing freshness to the grapes. Pinotage, South Africa’s signature grape variety, is a crossing between Pinot Noir and Cinsault, (the latter was previously known as Hermitage in South Africa) from which it takes its name.
