Product information "Delheim Vera Cruz Pinotage 2019"
The Delheim Vera Cruz Pinotage flows into the glass in a strong purple colour and exudes aromas of plums, red currants, tobacco, black cherries and chocolate truffles. The palate is full and juicy with a complex palette of fruit aromas - plums, mulberries and fresh cherries. Fine velvety tannins show perfect balance, beautiful length and a wonderfully round finish.

The grapes were harvested and sorted by hand, after which they were lightly crushed and rested in open lagares. Spontaneous fermentation took place at low temperature, after which the juice fermented at 26°C. Prior to release, the wine had a 17 month aging period in French oak barrels, 35% of which was new.
