in the vineyard : ABOUT THE AREA
South Africa's vineyards are mostly situated in the Western Cape near the coast. This is the southernmost region of the African continent, and has a Mediterranean type climate and diverse soils perfectly suited to quality grape production.

about the harvest: Harvesting took place from end of January till middle February.

in the cellar : The first Pinotage grapes of the season were picked at optimal ripeness. The grapes were crushed and the juice was kept in contact with the skins for several hours until a rich pink colour was obtained. The skins were then removed from the juice and it was fermented until a rich colour was achieved.
