KAAPZICHT STEYTLER PINOTAGE 2022

ORIGIN: Bottelary, Stellenbosch
MATURATION: 20 months in 80% new French Oak, 20% second fill.
DESCRIPTION: Dominated with cherry and red fruit aromas, backed up with inky and vanilla notes. Spice and richness create tension on the palate leaving an earthy and elegant finish.

Pinotage lies at the heart of Kaapzicht's identity. Since 1946, four generations of the Steytler family have farmed the Bottelary Hills, with a deep belief in the potential of this land. The Kaapzicht Steytler Pinotage, made from old bush vines using traditional methods, has earned top honours including Platter's 5 Stars and Cape Winemakers Guild selection. It's a bold yet honest expression of the terroir -crafted with depth, structure, and soul. (Danie Steytler)

KANONKOP PINOTAGE 2017

ORIGIN: Simonsberg, Stellenbosch
MATURATION: 16 months in French Nevers oak barrels - 80% new and 20% second fill.
DESCRIPTION: Bright ruby-red hues. Aromatic and spicy aromas of mulberry, raspberry and cinnamon. Flavours of bramble, violets, plums and black berries are balanced by scented new oak

Kanonkop's legacy with Pinotage is deeply intertwined with the rise of the varietal on the world stage. As one of the first estates to champion Pinotage, Kanonkop helped elevate the varietal to a flagship South African wine. Under world-renowned winemakers, including Abrie Beeslaar, Kanonkop won the International Winemaker of the Year at the IWSC 4 times, together with a record number of Absa Top 10 Pinotage awards.

BEYERSKLOOF KRIEKBULT PINOTAGE 2020

ORIGIN: Bottelary, Stellenbosch
MATURATION: 19 months in 50% new French Oak and 50% second fill.
DESCRIPTION: Expresses an abundance of black fruit flavours, from blackberries to cassis, with a balanced approach to oak character.

Beyerskloof has become a symbol of Pinotage excellence since its inception. While Pinotage pioneer Beyers Truter laid the foundation, today it is winemaker Anri Truter who continues the legacy, crafting wines that capture the essence of this proudly South African varietal. Under Anri's leadership, Beyerskloof has continued to receive local and international acclaim, particularly for a variety of innovative, site-specific, barrel-selected Pinotages in the portfolio.
