SEVEN SISTERS PINOTAGE 2020
This Pinotage is rooted in the Robertson Valley. These vineyards are grown in lime rich karoo soils with fairly high clay content. This soil enables growers to use regulated deficit irrigation to control vine vigour and berry size. After a strict vineyard selection, the selected fruit was harvested from the middle of February to the first week in March. Malolactic fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine was matured on wood for 3 months to add weight and complexity before stabilization and bottling.
TASTING NOTES
A deep purple tint on the rim with delicious flavors of ripe strawberry, juicy plums, and rich, red cherry. Produced in an early drinking style with well-integrated wood and a soft, smooth finish.
