Product Notes

Stellenrust Pinotage is an exceptional South African wine of a remarkably rich hue, reflecting its abundance in robust flavours and depth. Grown in the heart of the Stellenbosch winelands, it carries distinctive characteristics of ripe dark fruits mixed with velvety mocha. This first-rate Pinotage embodies excellent tannin structure, rendering all necessary elements for perfect cellaring potential. The full-bodied texture is complemented by a fragrant nose of plush red berry notes, while the gorgeously long finish is tinged with a hint of vanilla. Stellenrust Pinotage encapsulates the essence of South African winemaking tradition with a contemporary twist.

Tasting Notes

This wine offers raspberry, ripe strawberry and black cherry flavours with subtle oak nuances, a ripe juice palate and a delicate lingering finish.
