About this Item
6 x 750ml bottles of Kanonkop CWG Pinotage, from the vintages: 2013, 2014 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018
The Kanonkop CWG Pinotage is a selection from mainly the older bush vine vineyards on Kanonkop. These vineyards have yields as low as 3 tons/ha.
We make the wine in traditional open-top fermenters, with two-hourly punch-downs through the night. The wine is aged in new French oak barrels for 20 months.
This flight of wine will give you the opportunity to delve into vintage variations from 2013 through the drought years, and also the classic 2018 vintage.
