Why we like it

Pinotage tells the most authentic soul of South Africa, and this interpretation by Bellingham enhances its most refined side. A balanced, intense, and versatile wine, combining ripe fruit, spices, and a pleasant softness.

Wine Profile

On the nose, it opens with plum, mulberry, and delicate notes of vanilla and sweet spices. On the palate, raspberry, strawberry, and black cherry emerge, accompanied by liquorice, cloves, and cardamom. Fine tannins and oak aging provide depth, balance, and a long, harmonious finish.

The Bellingham Signature

The Homestead line is named after the historic estate house in Franschhoek, where some of Bellingham's most representative labels were born. Each wine in the collection enhances the character of the territory with an elegant and contemporary style.

Food Pairing

Perfect with roasted lamb, game, braised ribs, barbecue, bobotie, lamb tagine, mushrooms, and aged cheeses.

Serving
