Clean, moderate plus intensity, smoky red fruits, plums, creamy lactic note, complex layers, quite mineral, subtle spicy oak, alcohol noticeable.
Dry, moderate plus acidity, sappy freshness and savory, ripe medium tannin, some chalky crunchy note, black olives in brine, delicate extraction, if only all the other reds in the stable could have the profile, they would have been very sexy! hints of tobacco, full bodied with high alcohol of 14% abv, yet have a certain airy character, moreish, not only is this the best red in the Wildekrans Estate range, but another confirmation that Pinotage is at home in Bot River (think of the stunning bottling from Beaumont) and have a certain affinity with the terroir, now until 2019
