The Ashbourne Pinotage Cinsault is a delicious unwooded cuvée of rather low alcohol content and presents itself with a generous opulence on the palate. The full and deep character of the wine, coming from the Pinotage, is balanced by the light liveliness of the Cinsault in a wonderfully fresh way.

The grapes reached their phenolic maturity at an unusually low alcohol content - a desirable and for South Africa unusual occurrence. In addition, the grapes showed excellent high acidity and a low pH-value. The grapes ripened separately in stainless steel tanks and were blended after fermentation and bottled for final consumption. No wood was used in the production of this wine.
