Spice Route Pinotage 2020

Charles Back was a pioneer in the Swartland when he started Spice Route in 1998 after tasting an exceptional Sauvignon Blanc and immediately buying the land on which it was grown. "Without [Charles]…the Swartland would still be regarded as a rural backwater" wrote Tim Atkin, who awarded the winery ‘Cru Bourgeois’ status in his South Africa Classification in 2019. This Pinotage has an intense ruby red colour, with rich blackcurrant and cherry aromas. On the palate, there are intense dark fruit flavours that combine well with the sweet vanilla oak aromas.
