Perhaps the keenest characteristic of this wine is its delicious harmony of sweet raspberry fruit and soft balanced perfumed tannins. There is also a delightful lingering long finish on the wine.

Pinot Noir is the most food flexible varietal. Its richness comes from a multitude of layers of flavour. Enjoy with fish, poultry, game birds and red meat dishes.

ageing : A great future is expected, will mature to greater heights!

in the vineyard : The heavy clay soils of the lower Hemel-en-Aarde Valley are said to be the reason for this areaâ€™s ability to repeatedly offer vintages of premium quality Pinot Noir wines. Clay soils contribute through their moisture support as well as through their complex soil chemistry. Add to this Hermanusâ€™s soft summer weather conditions, then the result is a happy combination for a particularly fussy grape.

about the harvest: The harvest was swift and neat â€“ all complete in eight days. A constant 24Âº Balling of ripeness was achieved through all parts of the Pinot vineyard. Great natural fruit acid levels and secure clean grapes!
