About the Wine

The La Cave Pinotage is a highly acclaimed, premium South African red wine crafted from hand-selected, low-yielding vineyard blocks in the Wellington valley. It stands as a pinnacle of regional excellence, celebrated as a ten-time Absa Top 10 Pinotage winner. In the glass, it showcases complex and inviting aromas of ripe plums, red cherries, and wild berries, beautifully complemented by notes of cinnamon, cedarwood, vanilla, and roasted coffee bean.
On the palate, you will find a rich, plush, and beautifully focused presence featuring a deep ruby or purple hue. It delivers an elegant structure where deep fruit flavors meet finely grained tannins and a balanced acidity, leading into a long, dry, and juicy finish. Matured for 18 months in small, first-fill French oak barrels, this bold and structural classic is built with an immense complexity that allows for excellent aging potential.
