Description

The Pinotage being a stalwart in the Altygedacht Portfolio is a beautiful expression of the cool climate of the Durbanville Valley. The first impression is of bright red fruits like strawberries, raspberries and red liquorice. On the palate the wine is loaded with sweet pipe tobacco, black cherries and plums. The tannins are seamlessly integrated and the wood beautifully supports the wine.
