100% Pinotage

Wine of Origin: Simonsberg-Stellenbosch
Winemaker: Abrie Beeslaar

Kanonkop is a pioneer among Pinotage producers in the Cape. This wine was crafted from 53-year-old dry land bush vines, with low yields of 4-5 tons per hectare. During fermentation, traditional manual punch-downs were meticulously performed in open-top fermenters. Following this process, the wine matured for 18 months in 100% new French oak barrels.

Tasting Notes: Deep red colour with aroma of plums, blackcurrant and mocha. The palate is structured with dark fruit and sweet spice notes. The wine has a dry, mouthwatering finish.

Ready for drinking from 2025 onwards.
