Product information "False Bay Bush Vine Pinotage 2023"

The False Bay Bush Vine Pinotage is as elegant as a Pinotage can be! Perfectly balanced with fruity and spicy aromas of red berries as well as soft tannins, it makes a super palatable companion for many dishes.

The False Bay series is named after the bay overlooking the vineyards of the False Bay Winery. The beautiful False Bay, which reaches up to the cape. It was a great adventure when Waterkloof decided to try it with the Pinotage grape variety. An adventure that ended well in the best sense of the word. The grapes came partly from Paarl, from 30 year old vines. The winemaker was fascinated by the small, concentrated grapes. After a lot of work in the vineyard and in the cellar, an exciting Pinotage arose, with an ingenious price-performance ratio.

Treatment in the cellar

Entrappt, gequetscht und in offenen Stahltanks mit einheimischen und wilden Hefen temperaturkontrolliert bei 26° bis 30°C spontan vergoren. Während der Gärung wird der Saft einmal täglich unten abgepumpt und oben wieder über dem Maischekuchen verteilt, um diesem ein Maximum an Extrakten zu entziehen. Nach dem Ende der Gärung wird der Wein abgelassen, der Maischekuchen aber nicht abgepresst. Anschließend reifte er für zehn Monate in großen Eichenfässern, was die Tannine des Pinotages ein wenig zügelt und dem Wein zusätzliche Komplexität verleiht.
