Cathedral Cellar Pinotage 2003

This wine displays the excellence of the Pinotage variety. Juicy, ripe fruit, banana and raspberry flavours and a hint of plump fruit. The slight cinnamon spice results from the oak.

Lamb, beef, game birds or venison, interesting dishes with ham, mushroom and mustard dishes. Also matches chocolate rather well.
