Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The The Crossover Pinotage 2020 from Rickety Bridge is an exceptional wine that beautifully expresses the versatility and elegance of the Pinotage grape.
Made from hand-picked grapes grown in the winery's cool, carefully tended vineyards, this Pinotage stands out with its bright, deep red colour.
The nose is defined by aromas of dark berries, dried herbs and a delicate smoky note from barrel ageing. On the palate, the wine reveals a rich texture, full body and balanced structure. Subtle notes of vanilla, dark Chocolate and a hint of roasted coffee give the wine depth and complexity. An elegant, lingering finish makes this tasting experience unforgettable.

Pinotage
Pinotage has a distinctive, usually bold character, with aromas of dark berries, plums and cherries, often complemented by spicy or earthy notes. In the glass, this red wine is typically deep ruby to purple in colour. Usually moderate acidity and perceptible tannins, which can be supple or pronounced depending on how it is aged, tannin give the fruit structure and backbone.
Its principal home is South Africa, particularly regions such as Stellenbosch, Paarl and Swartland. Styles range from juicy, fruity and approachable wines to concentrated, full-bodied versions with ageing potential. Aged in wood, the wine can develop toasty aromas and hints of coffee, cocoa or smoke, though these do not define every Pinotage.
Fruit-forward styles tend to be more direct and lively, while more robustly aged versions are denser and spicier. They pair well with pan-fried or grilled meat, hearty vegetable dishes and mature cheese.
