Fish Hoek Pinotage 2016

Ripe, juicy red fruit supported by subtle spicy tones. Upfront red plum and fruitcake flavours and well integrated subtle oak provides a delicious lingering finish.

pAn ideal accompaniment to braais, rare beef, roasted vegetables and mature cheeses./p

Harvest ended 2 weeks earlier than usual in most regions with an expected total of 1.5 million tons for the South African Wine Industry.
