VITICULTURE:
The grapes used for this Sparkling Red come from Pinotage vines.
WINEMAKING:
Pinotage grapes are harvested at lower sugar levels to ensure fruit with lower alcohol. The grapes are destemmed and crushed at the cellar with a few hours skin contact allowed. Finally the grapes are pressed to extract juice. The lovely juice is then allowed to settle for 2 days and racked thereafter. The residual sugar is attained by using natural concentrated grape juice. Co2 gas added to the wine during bottling process.
TASTING:
An attractive soft colour, with a bouquet of rose petal, strawberry and cloves.
