SPECIES
100% Pinotage
VINTAGE
2018 was a very dry season with a great, long, cool ripening period
resulting in smaller berries and more concentrated flavours.
HABITAT
The hunt for perfect Pinotage grapes ranges from warmer southern
slopes basking in long hours of sunshine to cooler pockets of vines
swept by African ocean breezes. This ensures ultimate expression of
varietal and land typical of Tall Horse. Hand harvested in March at an
optimal average ripeness of 24°B.
GESTATION
Grapes are hand harvested and crushed, then left on the skins for 2
hours to capture a delicate sunset pink hue and generous crushed
red berry flavours then drawn off the skins and fermented under cool
cellar conditions until a mere dash of residual sugar remains.
CHARACTER
An attractive deep pink shimmering wine with rampant ripe red berry
aromas and playful hints of spice on to a soft and juicy fruit palate and
a lively fresh finish.
FOR YOUR DRINKING PLEASURE
A wine best enjoyed within a year or two of vintage when the fruit is
fresh and vibrant. Serve well chilled all on its own or at picnics,
parties, and in the company of good friends.
