Juno Pinotage 2024

Tasting Notes:
Opaque ruby-red colour with violet reflections around the edges. On the nose, it exudes layered aromas of raspberries, cherries, and cranberries, intertwined with subtle notes of plums and blackberries. These fruity aromas are beautifully complemented by hints of vanilla, chocolate, mocha, and a whisper of spice, courtesy of its careful oak maturation. The palate is greeted with the same berry flavours that were promised by the nose. The wine is medium to full-bodied, with velvety and well-integrated tannins, providing a smooth and satisfying mouthfeel. As the wine unfolds on the palate, one can detect layers of dark chocolate, mocha, and a touch of smokiness, which add to its allure. The finish is long, lingering, and elegantly dry, leaving a pleasant aftertaste filled with notes of ripe red berries, spice and roasted coffee beans.

Food pairing:
Lamb kebabs, Cape Malay cuisine and Cajun seafood boil.
