Kadette Pinotage 2023

Pinotage is the flagship of South African viticulture. The grape variety has its origin in South Africa. Pinotage is still grown almost exclusively in South Africa, nearly a hundred years after its creation.

Pinotage shows an incredible diversity. Its styles range from coffee & Chocolate to plum & banana aromas. Thus, Pinotage is a true all-rounder. This is reflected in the increased use of the Pinotage grape in cuvées, blends, and also rosé wines. Even white wines (Blanc-de-Noir) are produced from Pinotage.

The history of Pinotage begins with its creator, Prof. Abraham Izak Perold. After his professorship in 1906, Perold was sent by the government in Cape Town on a mission to search for new grape varieties.

In 1925, Perold successfully crossed Pinot Noir and Cinsaut for the first time, which was then known as Hermitage. This is where the name PINO - TAGE comes from.
