Product information "Lemberg Spencer Pinotage 2017"
The Lemberg Spencer Pinotage exudes the scent of aromatic raspberries and dark cherries, paired with a fine hint of cloves and subtle earthy notes. The cherry aromas already absorbed by the nose also unfold on the palate, marrying deliciously with nuances of creamy milk chocolate and fragrant vanilla. Its soft and well integrated tannins and its complex structure complete the pleasure experience.

The grapes were harvested in the cool morning hours and cooled down to 4°C on arrival at the winery, before being completely destemmed and sorted berry by berry. The berries were then subjected to a 48-hour cold swelling phase. After fermentation, the wine matured for 12 months in a combination of first and second barrels of French oak (60% virgin wood) and was then bottled unfiltered and unrefined.
