Tasting profile

Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry

Feniks — Scions of Sinai's Pinotage from old Stellenbosch bush vines on the Helderberg's decomposed granite, made with a light hand: red cherry and bramble over fynbos, smoky spice and fine, fresh tannin. Pinotage in a transparent, low-extraction register that has little to do with the grape's old reputation.
