Braai Description
The earliest archaeological evidence of barbecue (Braai) is found in South Africa. On September 24th of each year the country celebrates Heritage Day, which in 2007 was renamed Braai4Heritage as a testament to its cultural importance in South Africa. The essence of braai is captured in this Pinotage, South Africa’s only native grape that is a hybrid between Pinot Noir and Cinsault, a perfect pairing for meat cooked over a wood flame. Brimming with juicy dark fruit and a bright, balanced acidity.

Sweet oak spice and mocha drizzle lead the decadent nose of this wine, with rich plum and cherry sauce as well as berry preserves at the core of the nose and mouth. It’s slightly smooth in feel, with a plush impression and spicy, velvety tannins that continue from the palate to the finish.
