Product information "Rijk's Private Cellar Pinotage 2022"

In a deep garnet red, the Rijks Private Cellar Pinotage flows into the glass and exudes aromas of red fruits, ripe cherries, strawberries and cranberry. These intense fruit aromas carry through to the creamy, lush palate, supported by a dense concentration of velvety, dense tannins and very well integrated wood tones. Perfect harmony and balance! The cellar master recommends decanting one hour before drinking. Elegance, finesse and an extraordinary fruit complexity characterize this highly endowed Pinotage!

Treatment in the cellar

Vor der Fermentierung fand eine 48-stündige Kaltquellphase statt, um so ein Maximum an Farbe und Frucht zu extrahieren. Die malolaktische Gärung erfolgte im Fass. Der Pinotage reifte 22 Monate lang in Fässern aus 60% französischer und 40% amerikanischer Eiche. 40 % der Fässer waren Neuholz mit Erstbelegung, 30% zweit- und 30% drittbefüllte Fässer.
