"A hidden gem" - Platter's 2016. A masculine Pinotage with a rich dark plum colour, complemented by a structured palate of coffee, chocolate & black berries which support the long soft

So, every South African list needs a Pinotage, but it was not quite that easy. My Wine Farm (that’s what they call them there) visits always included the question; “Do you have a Pinotage I can taste?” The best response was; “I’m patriotic, but I’m not that patriotic!” It’s an erratic grape, with no clear style and can vary from “thin and pissy” (a technical term I picked up in Australia) to rich, velvety and complex. My pick was Du Plevaux Pinotage produced by Imbuko Wines near Wellington in the heart of the Boland winelands. Co-founder and Managing Director, Theunis van Zyl, has been part of the wine industry for 30 years. Imbuko, means “Admiration for…..” in Xhosa, one of South Africa’s eleven official languages.

It's got to be Bobotie!
