Klawer Villa Esposto Pinotage 2022

Villa Esposto, wine range, pays tribute to the many Italians who have played such a pivotal role in South Africa, not only in the field of winemaking but also in various civil engineering projects. In particular, it pays homage to Louis Theodore Esposto, who arrived from Italy in 1914. Louis and many other Italians built the water canal, that today is a vital “fountain of life” in our wine-growing region, Olifants River.

It is another dry land Bush vine vineyard of the legendary Basie van Lill. During harvest time, after the grapes are handpicked and left outside overnight for natural cooling and crushed early the next morning. Intense and concentrated aromas of ripe cherries and Christmas cake supported with sweet and smokey undertones on the palate. The wine is generous with red berries and plums.
