Bright red in colour, with a purple hue. Bold aromas of plums & blackberries, with layers of liquorice, smoke, roasted nuts and rich vanilla on the nose. The palate is packed with flavours of plums, black and red cherries, dark chocolate and spicy oak. The integrated and ripe tannins, together with the satisfying acidity, results in a balanced wine with a long finish, promising great maturation potential.

Of the 125 hectares of the estate, 100 are vineyards. The Kanonkop Pinotage wine comes from old vines aged over 60 years and traditionally cultivated. To do this, they carefully monitor the grapes throughout the growth cycle, testing the sugar, acid and PH levels, as well as carrying out a visual check every day. When the grape reaches optimum ripeness, it is harvested manually.
