Is Pinotage a good wine?
What reviewers say
“I’m really not a Pinotage fan but I’m very much enjoying this example. There’s a clean freshness to it that shows varietal typicity without the rubbery burnt twang that often features. Med ruby. Earthy liquorice, clove, black plum, cherry, black cherry & mulberry.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Alluring ruby colour entices with the sweet scented aromas of red berries, blueberries and a touch of spice. Moulded tannins sculpt the palate with soft nuances of dried prunes and red cherries. The finish is juicy and delectable.
