Elevate your wine collection with Bergsig Estate Pinotage, a quintessential South African red that combines traditional character with modern finesse. This Pinotage is known for its intensely perfumed profile and smooth tannin structure.

Tasting Notes:

  • Aroma: Cedar-toned plums and dark berries with a pronounced, fragrant bouquet.
  • Palate: Rich and lively with generous fruit flavours and a smooth-textured tannin structure. Notes of dark berries and plums are complemented by subtle cedar undertones.
  • Finish: Long and balanced, with a lingering finish that hints at the wine’s potential for further aging.

Vinification:

  • Grapes: Sourced from low-production, old vineyards. The small, thick-skinned berries were harvested at full ripeness (25 - 26°B).
  • Fermentation: Regular pump-overs during fermentation ensured maximum color extraction and flavor development.
  • Maturation: Aged in 300-litre oak barrels to enhance complexity and structure.

Terroir:

  • Climate: Mediterranean with approximately 1000mm annual rainfall.
  • Location: The estate is situated on the upper slopes of the Breede River Valley at an elevation of 240 – 350m above sea level. The region experiences cold winters with snow until late spring, contributing to the slow ripening of grapes.
  • Soil: The vineyard soils are influenced by the Worcester Fault, with weathered sandstone on the hills and a variety of sedimented soil parent materials in the valley floor. This terroir, combined with significant diurnal temperature variation, promotes optimal sugar development and preserves natural acidity.

Food Pairing: Bergsig Estate Pinotage pairs beautifully with venison, game birds, and hearty casseroles. Its robust character and smooth texture make it a great match for rich, savory dishes.
