Kadette Pinotage 2020 - Kanonkop

Pinotage is a grape variety that originated in South Africa in 1925 from a unique cross between Pinot Noir and Hermitage (or Cinsaut). The father of Pinotage was Abraham Izak Perold, a university professor and winemaker who sought the best resistance to the dry summers of the Western Cape region of South Africa.

On the nose, Kadette Pinotage presents deep aromas of cherry, plum, strawberry, vanilla and cinnamon. On the palate, flavours of raspberries, plums, cranberries and milk chocolate are revealed, with layers of spice. Medium-bodied with refreshing and balanced acidity, finely structured tannins and a long, satisfying finish.

Table pairings: Kadette Pinotage 2022 pairs grandly with beloved pizza, as well as pasta or red meat dishes, as well as spicy dishes.

Expected evolution: Kadette Pinotage is at its best within 7 years of bottling.
