Product Description:
Everything in its right place; the wood doesn't disturb or irritate, but rather accentuates the fleshy, berry-fruity nose. This Pinot definitely carries the weight of the Southern Hemisphere, but it doesn't come across as forced or powerful. Rather, it's a mineral-cool representative, with a spicy-earthy, medium-bodied taste. Add to that these deliciously fine tannins and brilliant acidity. Very artfully orchestrated and harmonized, like a Chambolle-Musigny from the Cape. It glides feather-light across the palate.

Vinifikation
Nom, an abbreviation for Nombulelo, means gratitude in the indigenous Xhosa language and stands for the African goddess of agriculture, Nomkhubulwane. At an altitude of 700 meters above sea level lies the Elandskloof Valley with its shale soils and extreme conditions for viticulture. The Kaaimansgat site enjoys a first-class reputation in SA viticulture. The 2021 vintage was very successful again for Jessica Saurwein, gifting her a small but high-quality harvest with fine acidity and tannins. Hand-harvested, short cold maceration, 10 months of aging in a combination of new (25%) and used 228-liter pièces.
