Tasting: Eikeboom Pinotage

Name: Eikeboom Pinotage
Variety: Pinotage
Region: Western Cape
Country: South Africa
Year: 2015
Price: $8.95 at Vintage Cellar, Regular $15

Shop Review: 88 – Wine & Spirits “This dark-colored 2015 possesses cranberry and cherry richness intermixed with some spice box, earth and herbs. It is fresh, medium-bodied and could be served chilled if readers desire, given its Beaujolais-like weight and texture.” 

My Review: For the smell of this wine a got a deep dark berry and cherry aroma with an undertone of oak and spice. On the palate the oak and spice really come through and there is a cherry flavor on the finish.

This wine was not tasted with food.
