Lagerung bis zu 7 Jahre. No need to decant before serving. Although best known for their deliciously vibrant and full-flavoured whites made from Chenin Blanc the Beaumont estate also produces limited quantities of red wines from the Pinotage grape. Pinotage was actually the first wine made at Beaumont and this bottling is a stunning example of cool climate Pinotage made from 45 year old vines. The grapes are vinified in concrete tanks and then aged in oak barrels for 18 months to soften Pinotage’s notoriously firm tannins. The result is a well-built intensely fruited red wine with ample dark berry and cherry character which lingers on the tongue. The structure fine balance and subtle freshness of this wine make it an excellent match for red meat and it will continue to develop and evolve if cellared over the next decade or so. Beaumont was founded in 1994 when Jayne and her late husband Raoul decided to leave the local co-operative system to produce their own wines from start to finish. The couple renovated the stunning property at Compagnes Drift which had formerly been an 18th century outpost for the Dutch East India Company and began to bottle their wines here. Recently the running of the estate has passed to Sebastian the couple’s son who has worked tirelessly to establish a reputation for crafting exceptional wines.
