Nederburg’s story began in 1791 when German immigrant Philippus Wolvaart founded the estate in South Africa’s Paarl Valley; today it’s one of the country’s best-known and most awarded wine brands. This Pinotage uses South Africa’s own signature grape, first bred in 1924 by Professor Abraham Izak Perold.

TASTING NOTES
NOSE- Ripe plum, black cherry and red berries, layered with vanilla, oak spice and a hint of tobacco.
PALATE- Rich and fruit-forward, dark fruit and spice through the middle, soft tannins carrying it to a smooth finish.
FINISH- A lingering aftertaste true to Pinotage’s fruit-driven character.
