Product Description:
Pinotage 88% with Cabernet Sauvignon 12%
Barrel maturation: an average period of 18 months in 225 litre oak barrels (77% French & 23% American).
Dark ruby colour; red berry and plummy fruitiness with vanilla, oak and spice; full on the palate with smooth, robust tannins.
Jeremy's Motto: CLASSIC RED WINE : HANDCRAFTED - TRADITIONAL - UNHURRIED
There was not enough maiden vintage (1992) Grangehurst Pinotage to fill our stainless steel tank – so Jeremy decided to fill the tank with Cabernet Sauvignon (8%). So started the Grangehurst “recipe” of blending between 8 and 14% Cabernet Sauvignon with our Pinotage. The Cabernet provides an interesting dimension of fruit, tannin and additional acidity – which contribute to the complexity and balance of Grangehurst Pinotage.
