Winery Review

An unusual style of Pinotage with complex aromas of black pepper, smoke, tomato, and dark fruit. The palate is packed with ripe mixed berry flavors, making this unoaked red wine a real crowd-pleaser.

My Review
As we know by now, I was not too excited to taste another red wine as they are my least favorite. However this one was very different from the usual bunch. The nose gave off a deliciously sweet and warm scent of blackberries and caramel. A hint of currant slowly faded in from the back and brought everything together. The wine was not overly sweet or overly dry and had a lot to offer.

I did not eat food with this wine.
