2022 Natte Valleij ‘Nat’ Pinotage

Just as I remember it in the cold cellar—a boisterously sincere wine that warmed my bones and heart immediately. This is Pinotage nouveau. A nod at Beaujolais in candied candour, whilst delivering those beautifully spiced and herbal notes of Cinsault.

N Remarkably appropriate for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner! Full of heart-warming spice and savoury-sweet tart fruits—minced meat pie with Grandma Betty’s cranberry sauce.

P Fresh with subtle complexity. Bright acid core of crunchy red and black fruits. Joyous and uninhibited—the perfect accompaniment to a rich and rambunctious family meal. Not too serious, but seriously delicious.

$ Hopefully landing in Canada soon! R150 (South African Rands)
