Bon Courage Pinotage 2006

2007 ABSA Top 10 Pinotage
2007 Veritas - Double Gold
This truly South African wine features rich flavours of fresh berries and ripe plums. The wood has integrated very well with the wine. This medium to full bodied wine will get softer and a more velvet feel with another two years of careful cellaring. It is a finely balanced wine to suit every discerning palate.
