Product information "Knorhoek Pinotage 2015"
Seductively fruity and spicy aromas of ripe bananas with pleasantly integrated wood tones beguile the nose. A wonderful berry bouquet rounds off this fragrance experience in a delicious way. On the palate, the Knorhoek Pinotage is also juicy and has an excellent dense structure.

Fermentation was carried out in open tanks with regular "punch downs" of the mash cake. The wine then matured for 20 months in French barriques. 50% of this was new wood, the other half was second bottled to achieve a good balance between fruit and wood notes.
