Into deep ruby plum colour with violet hues, the Kanonkop Pinotage flows into the glass and exudes a bold intensity of red plums, red berries, concentrated dark chocolate, vanilla and aromatic sweet spice notes. This is an incredibly complex wine with multi-faceted and sensory aromas that unfold beautifully when poured into the glass. On the palate it shows intense nuances of red ripe fruit, perfectly balanced tannins and a wonderfully long finish. Its unbeatable storage potential makes it the favourite of many conoisseurs and collectors.

After harvesting, the grapes fermented on the skins in open concrete fermenters at 28°C for 3 days, after which the juice was drawn off. The wine matured for 18 months in French barriques, 75% of which were new wood and 25% second growth oak.
