Aromas of ripe strawberry and raspberry combine with black cherry and plum while delicate use of French oak adds a hint of cacao
The bold, ripe fruit flavours follow on the palate and the fine tannin structure ensures a long, elegant finish
The grapes to produce Pinotage Constantia Groot Constantia were harvested in at 26° Balling and fermented on their skins, imparting colour, flavour and fine tannins, until the wine was dry
During fermentation four pump-overs per day took place to encourage maximum extraction
Pinotage Constantia Groot Constantia then spent 12 months in French oak barrels, of which 40% was new oak, with 20% in second, 20% in third and 20% in fourth fill barrels
