Soljans Estate Barrique Reserve Pinotage 2021, Kumeu, Auckland

Deep purple and dark red core with a ruby rim. Aromas of dark plum skin and black cherry flesh, there’s spice and dark clay mineral qualities, clove and toasty leesy undertones then violets. Dry, weighty and rich in flavour a wine with tension from tannins and acidity to frame the core fuit flavours of plums and black cherry. There’s plenty of baking spice and toasty flavours highighting clove and baked vanilla ideas. Textured with decent length this wine is ready. Perhaps best with food and ready to drinking day f purchase through 2029.

I am grateful to be trying Pilotage from a quality producer - thank you to the Soljans team.
