2020 Braai South African Pinotage....$13.99
Sweet oak spice and mocha drizzle lead the decadent nose of this wine, with rich plum and cherry sauce as well as berry preserves at the core of the nose and mouth. It's slightly smooth in feel, with a plush impression and spicy, velvety tannins that continue from the palate to the finish. Drink now.

More information about Pinotage Grape
Pinotage is a distinctive and uniquely South African grape variety, known for its bold flavors, complex character, and fascinating history. Created in the early 20th century, Pinotage has become one of South Africa’s signature grapes, producing wines that range from rustic and earthy to polished and elegant. Pinotage was first developed in 1925 by Abraham Izak Perold, a viticulturist at Stellenbosch University in South Africa. He crossed two well-known varieties—Pinot Noir and Cinsault (locally known as Hermitage)—hence the name Pinotage.
