Please login to see prices.
Built in 1825, the scenic Franschhoek mountain pass boasts the oldest stone bridge still in use in South Africa. Pinotage is another home-grown marvel, and this fruit-driven example offers generous flavours of black cherries, clove and raspberry jam.
Franschhoek Cellar Pinotage (Stone Bridge) is a fruit-driven Pinotage, which offers a good, juicy glass of wine, as handled very gently in the cellar to preserve its generous aromas of black cherries, cloze and raspberry jam. A smooth and juicy palate, redolent with ripe mulberries, and glimmers of tobacco and spice from gentle oaking, is followed by an appealingly savoury finish.
