Palate also shows a whiff of orange peel and coffee. Rustic, with Pinot Noir-like heft, a supple mouthfeel, lip-smacking fruit and a lingering finish.

In 1925, at the Stellenbosch University a Professor of Viticulture crossed Pinot Noir with Cinsault to create the hybrid Pinotage grape. This rustic-yet-sophisticated wine is love at first sip.
