Attractive on the nose with Golden Delicious, pine & light resinous notes. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite taut & lightly spiced; just a faint hint of stem ginger appears towards the finish.

Cinnamon, baking spices to the dried strawberries, redcurrants and thyme. Mediterranean herbs. Juicy and firm on the medium-bodied palate with some chewy tannins that prop up the structure for the elegant red berry fruit in the middle.
Pale yellow colour. Good bubble detachment. Thanks to its ageing, it has developed a fine aroma with fruit hints. Its well balanced structure, elegance and sensorial richness form an unmistakable personality.

Winemakers Notes
Aromas of citrus & white flowers, evolve into notes of honey & dried fruits. Balanced mouthfeel, skillfully blending vivacity & roundnes
Classic strawberry & cherry fruit you expect from a Pinot with a touch of peppery spice. The Overberg vineyard brings a classic strawberry fruit profile, while the vineyards in Elgin add structure. The Durbanville vineyards give an alluring perfume.
