This is a lighter, more fruit-forward pinotage that, although not as complex and great as their Red Hill, is immensely drinkable and nice.

Тёмно-рубиновый цвет. Аромат непривычный, с тонами кожи что ли. Вкус ягодный, сладкая вишня со специями.

Juicy berry on the nose. Pancetta on the finish. Good muscle, balance.

This is great Pinotage but not as you know it. A really approachable style with bags of fruit and low, soft, silky tannins. The guys from Simonsig really know how to make fantastic Pinotage and they are a safe bet if you wish to try this grape variety.

Freshly polished shoe leather and cedar on the nose with a bit of dark fruit and licorice lurking in the background. Fairly tannic with some oak on the palate. Interesting wine.

Real light flavor. Good smell but pretty light like a Pinot Noir
