Robertson Winery Pinotage (75cl, 13%)

Robertson Winery Pinotage is a single-varietal South African Pinotage from the Breede River Valley, bottled at 13% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Vinification takes place at a controlled 28°C, followed by malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks and about three months on lees in oak barrels. The vines are managed with regulated deficit irrigation between berry set and veraison. The nose has sweet smoke, hickory, cedar, ripe mulberry, red cherry and banana. The palate shows tart-sweet cherry-berry fruit, plum, strawberry, spiced meat and dark chocolate. The finish is medium, with bramble, warm spice and smoky sweetness.
