KWV is one of South Africa’s leading wine and spirit producers, with an impressive international reputation and history. We love how their dynamic winemaking team are bringing an innovative approach and modern wine styles.
KWV The Mentors Pinotage wine reflects the true varietal characteristics of a modern-styled Pinotage, with an abundance of blackcurrants and plums, and hints of fruit cake and cloves on the nose. The intense concentration on the palate shows sweet fruit and well-integrated oak. The wine was matured for 18 months in oak barrels - 90% of French origin and 10% American. A 70% portion of the barrels was first-fill. The silky-smooth tannins contribute to the wine’s juicy, round and seamless finish. This Pinotage is the perfect accompaniment to a pork-belly roast with garlic and sage or a succulent beef roulade.
