mehrere Informationen

Diemersfontein The Prodigy Pinotage exudes beguiling aromas of dark red fruit, black mulberry and blackberry. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of fragrant strawberries, ripe cherries and dark plums, combined with a well-balanced touch of fine oak. Unlike its older siblings, the original Diemersfontein Coffee / Chocolate Pinotage and the Diemersfontein Carpe Diem Reserve Pinotage, this wine exudes the uniquely youthful and lively characteristics of this authentically South African grape variety.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were picked by hand in the early hours of the morning, crushed on arrival at the winery and poured into open fermenters where the mash was pumped over four times a day. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was pressed in the traditional basket press and transferred to stainless steel tanks, where malolactic fermentation was completed. Anschlieβend the wine matured for 11 months in a selection of 20% new French barriques and 10% new American oak. The remaining 70% was a combination of second and third barrels of French and American oak.
