winemaker's notes:

100% Pinotage, from the Bellevue Estate in Stellenbosch, the world's first commercial producer of Pinotage.

Vanilla, coconut, plums, and raspberries on the nose, followed by layers of ripe, complex fruit on the palate. A big, well-balanced wine with a long, clean finish.

Serve with duck, venison, Thai dishes, herb roasted chicken.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
