About this Item

2015 Bona Fide Pinot Noir
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Bona Fide is the Latin term for "In good trust" which refers appropriately to our relationship with the owners of the vineyards, the Lötter family, which extends back 30 years. It is only through a relationship based on complete trust that the resulting wine will do justice to this special site.

Critics Ratings

'Combined black and red fruit on the brooding 2015 that is opulent and robust, bringing a welcome savoury complexity to the generous, rich fruit. Lots of concentration on the palate, reigned in by an exotic, dark berry and spice note and firm, edgy tannins. Potential to keep further. ' - Higgo Jacobs (Feb 2022)

'Hemel-en-Aarde Valley fruit, 40% whole bunches. 2015 textured and hugely appealing with complex earthy fynbos aromas, vanilla-infused strawberry compote flavours, lingering savoury farewell. 30% new oak.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2017, 4.5*
