Description
In a nutshell:
A beautifully long and complex South African Pinot Noir from the Hemel-en-Aarde area.
The lowdown:
The cool climate Hemel-en-Aarde area which sits in the southern Walker Bay region of South Africa is ideal territory for Pinot Noir and the experienced Kevin Grant of Ataraxia is pretty adept at making excellent examples from around here. The maritime influence on the vineyards the fruit is grown in make these grapes the last to ripen and be picked. It's aged in oak and has a vibrant ruby colour in the glass. There are enticing notes of fragrant red cherries, strawberry, damson on the nose which are followed by a delicate savouriness with hints of light wood spice. Rather than trying to be a statement wine it's, instead, elegantly subtle.
When to drink:
Seductively understated, this is just the thing to go with the likes of pork or veal.
Suitable for Vegans
