Stellenzicht Golden Triangle Pinotage 2009Stellenzicht Golden Triangle Pinotage 2009

Initial whiffs of cedar and toasty oak are balanced out by hints of ripe, red berry fruit. It shows fresh mulberry and raspberry nuance with a touch of sweet vanilla in the background. The palate is clean, crisp and elegant, this vintage tends to be slightly leaner than its predecessors but with the same integrity of pure Pinotage fruit. The tannins are wonderfully ripe and integrated and result in a very friendly, unobtrusive and lasting finish.
