Kaapzicht CWG Pinotage Reserve 2007
Pinotage 86%, Cabernet Sauvignon 14% The grapes were picked at full ripeness (25,8 degrees B), fermented in stainless steel tanks and pumped over 3-4 times a day. After a light pressing, the Pinotage underwent malolactic fermentation before going into 100 % new French oak barrels for 24 months. Tasting note: Saturated plum colour with purply black, opaque heart; focused Pinotage expression with intense layers of brooding black fruit and opulent oak, woven into a rich tapestry of flavour. Muscular tannins add depth and balance to plush fruit. Firm structure and rich texture will evolve beautifully with some 5 – 8 years cellaring.
