Southern Right Pinotage 2021 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Walker Bay
R380
‘Origin of grapes: 61% Overberg, 26% Swartland and 13% Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. Matured for nine months in a combination of 228- and 400-litre barrels, 12% new. Charming aromatics of rose, musk, cranberry and cherry while the palate is wonderfully pure and energetic – clearly defined fruit and fine tannins, the finish long and dry.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100
‘"Pinotage can be very sweet," says Anthony Hamilton Russell, and the aim is to avoid that on this example, produced from various Walker Bay sources. Stony reduction and smoky bacon aromas segue into flavours of plum and black cherry and a sheen of subtle oak spices. Will age well in bottle. 2023-27’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2022, 92/100
