Spioenkop Wines '1900' Pinotage 2019

Koen Roose of Spioenkop Wines makes one of the best examples of Pinotage in South Africa. The grapes for this Pinotage come from the Bottelary Hills ward of Stellenbosch, in the Western Cape. Pinotage, South Africa’s signature grape variety, is a crossing between Pinot Noir and Cinsault, (the latter was previously known as Hermitage in South Africa) from which it takes its name. Following fermentation, the grape-skins were slowly pressed in a stainless steel basket press. Natural malolactic conversion took place in selected barrels. The wine was barrel-aged for 10 months, 55% of which was new wood, and the wine was bottled without fining. The Spioenkop '1900' Pinotage is a fruit-driven style of wine, with a generous array of red cherry, violet, grenadine and strawberry underpinned by freshly picked black plum, graphite, black olives and spice. Elegant and smooth with a stony freshness and a satisfying, satin-textured finish.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
