Tesselaarsdal Pinot Noir 2023 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Hemel-en-Aarde
R710
‘Berene Sauls sources her ambitious Pinot Noir from La Vierge's farm on the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, using Emul Ross of Hamilton Russell Vineyards as her winemaker. The nose has appealing ginger spice, rose petal and vanilla aromas, complementing a succulent, savoury palate of wild strawberry and summer pudding supported by refreshing acidity. 2024-28’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 93/100
‘10% whole-bunch fermentation. Matured for nine and a half months in 228-litre barrels, 26% new. Red berries, orange, musk, tea leaf and spice on the nose. The palate is well balanced with pure fruit, zesty acidity and fine tannins, the finish long and dry. Alc: 13.32%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 93/100
