Information about "Radford Dale Vinum Pinotage 2024"
The Radford Dale Vinum Pinotage masterfully embodies the distinctive character and essence of this exceptional South African grape. Originating from a 25-year-old vineyard in the Stellenbosch region, this wine showcases a deep purple shade with a striking ruby rim. Aromas of bright plums and luscious raspberries dance on the nose, underpinned by a delicate mineral freshness that invigorates the palate. Medium-bodied and completely dry, it reveals pure fruit flavors accompanied by finely textured tannins, culminating in a refreshing and clean finish.
In a move towards sustainability, Radford Dale bottles all Vinum wines in eco-friendly, lightweight glass (396 g) with recyclable screw caps.
The grapes were spontaneously fermented as whole berries in wooden fermentation tanks (600 l per fermenter) to ensure gentle extraction of color, flavor nuances, and tannins. After fermentation, the wine was pressed with great care to separate it from the skins, then transferred to small, previously used Burgundy barrels (228 l and 300 l) for malolactic fermentation. No new barrels were used, allowing the varietal to express its extraordinary freshness along with texture and complexity.
