Kanonkop Estate Pinotage 2014
Stellenbosch, South Africa

Climate: A warm dry season with hot days during picking

A complex wine with layers of different aromas that evolve in the glass. The 2014 vintage offers more red fruit flavours in its youth, but after some bottle age this wine will start to show some farmyard, earthy and forest floor charateristics.

Food suggestion: Better with lamb or mutton when matured.

Winery Profile

KANONKOP ESTATE – Stellenbosch

The name Kanonkop is derived from a kopje (hillock), from which a cannon was fired in the 17th Century to alert farmers of ships approaching the Cape. Today, Kanonkop is a fourth generation family estate situated on the lower slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain in the Stellenbosch Region. They have been described by those in the know as the South African equivalent of a Premier Cru or First Growth and their collection of international awards is testament to this success.
