Product information "Alvi's Drift Verreaux Pinotage 2019"
Alvi's Drift Verreaux Pintoage is produced without any compromises in small quantities from grapes grown exclusively on Alvi's Drift's own vineyards. The intense colour in the glass releases aromas of juicy ripe fruit - sun-ripened mulberries and blackberries enchant the nose with subtle hints of fragrant leather, nuts and warm vanilla in the background. These aromas, already absorbed by the nose, are carried through seamlessly to the full-bodied palate in the form of complex taste nuances and provide a delicious pleasure. A Pinotage of very special class!
The Verreaux Eagle, (also known as the Black Eagle), is a large and majestic bird of prey that regularly circles the vineyards of Alvi's Drift. This rare and beautiful bird was named after Pierre Jules Verreaux, a French naturalist who was the first to describe numerous bird species in South Africa. In honour of Pierre Jules Verreaux and the eagle named after him, Alvi's Drift today gives its name to its flagship pinotage.

Das Traubengut wurde zur Fermentierung in traditionell offenen Gärtanks gequetscht. Der Saft „blutete“ dabei von der Schale, um ein Maximum an Farbe und optimale phenolische Werte im Wein zu erhalten. Mit Einsatz der Gärung wurde der Tresterhut bis zu achtmal täglich per Hand untergetaucht. Nach Abschluss der Fermentierung reifte der Wein 22 Monate lang in einer Kombination aus neuen französischen sowie amerikanischen Eichenfässern.
