The 2004 harvest produced a Pinotage of classic structure and intense characters unique to this grape. The 2004 growing season was early and ideai for full bodied red wines. The wine has a deep magenta color and juicy fruit aromas. Aromas of berry preserves, plum and cinnamon abound while cranberry and briar flavors linger through the aftertaste. This wine is a perfect match for spring and summer fare including foods from the backyard grill.Decant the wine at least 20 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
