7.0

First, I will admit a certain level of ignorance with a Pinotage. That said, at best, this wine is "drinkable" with pizza. Nose has a predominate note of say... turkey/pork. Falls very flat on the tongue . Very one note on the front and back that lacks any noticeable finish. — 9 years ago

Great wine for the price. This is a 2007 vintage. There's a deep dark fruit taste that's very smooth- although a little too tanic for the vintage. Finishes with nice pepper notes. — 10 years ago

8.8

Unexpectedly good for the price. Dark and brooding- fruit takes the back seat to baking spice. Unexpected lingering finish not usually found in wines at this price point. — 10 years ago

Fermented grape juice likely would have more complexity and depth. — 10 years ago
