Food Pairing: Red meat | Mushroom risotto

A special wine with a profound sense of place from one of the oldest commercial Pinotage vineyards in the world, planted in 1953. When the maiden 1959 vintage won trophies galore, Pieter Krige Morkel was crowned South Africa’s new ‘king of wine’. His hands-off approach then is replicated now to let the grace and wisdom of the vineyard shine through.

Tasting note

The scent of rosewater adds to the enchantment of bright raspberry, strawberry, maraschino cherry and pomegranate flavours, with dark plum and earthy beetroot notes too. Beautiful purity and poise in the silky mouthfeel and on the long finish. Exceptional maturation potential.
