Information about "Diemersdal The Journal Pinotage 2023"

The Diemersdal The Journal Pinotage captivates with its exquisite combination of vibrant berry fruit, complemented by exotic spices and hints of dark chocolate. On the palate, it reveals an exceptional complexity, underscored by velvety tannins that ensure a lengthy, pleasurable finish. This wine is a true expression of Diemersdal's terroir, reflecting the passion of generations of winemakers.

Treatment in the cellar The small, aromatic berries used to make this stunning Pinotage give it excellent structure, remarkable elegance and sophistication. The grapes were crushed and fermented in open French oak vats with a capacity of 1,000 litres at a controlled temperature of 25° - 28° C. Malolactic fermentation was completed in older French barriques, after which the wine matured for 22 months in 100% new French oak barrels (225 litres) before being bottled for enjoyment.
