Maastricht Pinotage Rosé 2023
R100.00
From the vineyard
The fertile Durbanville soil, quality of the dry-land Pinotage grape, the high rainfall and warmer summer days and cooler nights all contribute to the quality of Maastricht wines.
In the cellar
The Pinotage grapes were machine-harvested at 23.5 degrees Balling in the early morning hours, allowing the grapes to arrive cool in the cellar. After crushing and de-stemming, the grapes were lightly pressed. The juice was fermented with combinations of VIN 13 yeast strain in stainless steel tanks at 14-16 degrees. After fermentation, the wine was allowed to mature on the lees for a minimum of two months to gain extra complexity.
The winemakers notes
Beautiful salmon coloured Pinotage Rose with notes of pomegranate, cranberry with nuances of candy floss and floral notes add to the complexity of this wine.
