Product information "Radford Dale Vinum Pinotage 2018"
This first vintage of Radford Dale Vinum Pinotage fully expresses the essence and authentic character of this special South African grape variety. Fresh aromas of juicy black fruits wrap the nose and caress the well-balanced palate with elegance and ripe tannins. In the finish this Stellenbosch Pinotage presents itself pleasantly soft and long lasting.

The grapes were fermented spontaneously as whole berries in wooden fermenting vats with a capacity of 600 l per fermenter to ensure gentle extraction of colour, flavour nuances and tannin. Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed, the wine was transferred to the press, where it was separated from the skins with great care and then transferred to small second, third and fourth-filled Burgundy barrels (228 l and 300 l), where the malolactic fermentation took place. No new barriques were used in the production of this Pinotage, to allow the grape variety, together with its texture and complexity, to express its exceptional freshness to the full.
