Pinotage
Pinotage has a distinctive, usually full-bodied character with aromas of dark berries, plums and cherries, often complemented by spicy or earthy notes. In the glass, the red wine typically appears deep ruby red to purple. Usually moderate acidity and noticeable, depending on whether it is Aged, supple to pronounced tannin give the fruit structure and length.
Its most important home is South Africa, particularly regions such as Stellenbosch, Paarl and Swartland. Styles range from juicy, fruit-driven and approachable wines to concentrated, full-bodied versions with ageing potential. Aged in wood, it can develop toasted aromas as well as hints of coffee, cocoa or smoke; however, these do not define every Pinotage.
Fruit-forward examples tend to be more direct and lively, while more powerfully matured wines are denser and spicier. They pair well with pan-fried or grilled meat, hearty vegetable dishes and mature cheese.
