Pinotage from South Africa, is a great option as the days get warmer but the nights are still crisp. The grapes for the 2022 Four Cousins Pinotage were hand-harvested from estate vineyards and then quickly transported to the winery where they were gently pressed, before the juice and skins were left to macerate for just under a week. There was a hint of oak used during fermentation and the resulting wine is fresh and fruity with a well-rounded, vanilla and spice finish. This is best served with an easy dinner of spaghetti bolognaise or any BBQ’d meats.
The Four Cousins Collection also includes a Merlot, Chardonnay, Cab Sauv, and a Chardonnay. Try one or try them all!
