Merchant's description

Southern Right Pinotage 2023 is a red wine from the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley in South Africa. This maritime-influenced site is significantly cooler than the traditional home of Pinotage in Stellenbosch, resulting in a wine that is more refined and less jammy. Expect a wine with a distinct red-fruit profile and a savoury minerality that is a attributable to the valley`s shale-dominant soils.
