mehrere Informationen

In a deep dark red, Altydgedacht Pinotage flows into the glass and exudes the scent of black plums and a hint of dark cherries combined with a hint of roasted oak. It pleasantly caresses the palate with its silky structure. Typical for South Africa's cooler Durbanville terroir, this wine has incredibly elegant and soft tannins, which ensure a rounded and skilful finish. This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for the Altdgedacht Pinotage were hand picked, destemmed and crushed in closed stainless steel fermentation tanks. The mash was left to rest cold for 3 days before fermentation and yeast was added. The total fermentation time was 6 days at a maximum temperature of 27°C. 20% of the wine was transferred to new barrels for malolactic fermentation, while the remaining portion completed the malolactic fermentation in the tank. For barrel maturation, 50% French and 50% American oak barrels were used, 40% of which were new wood. The wine matured in barrels for a total of 12 months.
