  I think this is the second time I’ve had a Pinotage. This is so good I really need to try it more often.
  
  Medium bodied and well balanced. Smoky meat, read fruit, & earthiness on the nose. Red fruit, cherry, plum, raspberry. Smooth tannins and acids.

  Medium purple, clear at the edge.
  
  Pronounced intense nose of plum, black currant, menthol, cedar, and hint of smokiness.
  
  On the palate brooding black plum, black cherry, slate, and smoked meat.
  
  Medium alcohol, medium body, medium- acidity, grippy tannins and nice salinity.
  
  Pinotage is known to make high alcohol wines, but Southern Right makes a balanced wine with a modest 13.5% alcohol while retaining good acidity, thanks to low yields and cooler temperatures.
  
  This is a beautiful wine with restraint and depth.
