The Southern Right Pinotage is a fine Pinotage, which also inspires non fans of this original grape variety. The bouquet is characterized by complex berry fruit, which continues seamlessly on the palate, paired with incredibly soft tannins and subtle nuances of oak. It is delicate, full-bodied and juicy with a sophisticated style.

The grapes were picked by hand and transported to the cool cellar. The damaged grapes were sorted out, the rest was destemmed, crushed and pumped into large oak barrels. With the use of fermentation, the juice was pumped over the skin 3-4 times a day to extract colour, tannin and flavour. After fermentation was completed, the wine remained on the skin. Then the juice and skin were separated and the malolactic fermentation took place in wood. The wine was allowed to mature for another 9.5 months in barriques, of which 16% were new wood, 16% second filled, 55% third filled and 13% fourth filled.
