Eikeboom

Name: Eikeboom

Variety: Pinotage

Region: Western Cape

Country: South Africa

Year: 2015

Price: $6.95

Winemakers notes: 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: This wine has a very smoky flavor profile. It was not dry at all and was overall very rich and deep in flavor. It has a nice bold finish without being super heavy. I could definitely taste some earthy, spicy, notes.

Pairings: I did not pair this wine with any food.
