Critics Ratings

'Dominated by bush vine fruit (albeit irrigated in the hothouse conditions of Tulbagh) and aged in 60% new oak, this is another dense, plush, deeply coloured Pinotage from Pierre Wahl, with firmish tannins, a hint of acetone, some spice and bags of bramble and blueberry fruit. Drink: 2016-21' - Tim Atkin South African Report 92/100
