Winemaker: Bartho Eksteen. A blend of 72% Pinotage, 17% Roobernet and 11% Nouvelle, this wine is a tribute to those grapes founders, professors Abraham Perold and Chris Orffer, a true Cape blend in its own right. It opens with vibrant red cherry and berry aromas that are partnered with equally intense scents of sweet spice like cinnamon, clove and star anise. Those notes carry through to the round, plush medium-weight palate, supported by framing tannins and ample acidic lift. Fresh, spicy and well-balanced, it's a unique gem that should mature well over the medium term.
