Millberg Cellars Pinotage 2005

Posted by cfoldi On 29.6.10 0 comments

Lingering raspberry flavours with a smooth, sweet clove bouquet.

Brilliant mushroom aftertaste.

Refined and fruity - a style that perfectly suits grilled meat, spicy food and Cape Malay curries.

Matured in French oak barrels for at least 18 months.

At its best age, don't cellar it any more.

NZ$ 19.

A heavyweight Pinotage with unmistakable elegance.

On the nose it delivers a rich, fragrant bouquet of mixed dried fruit and floral potpourri, reminiscent of its delicate Pinot Noir 'parent'.

Hints of strawberry, banana and truffle flavours come through onto the palate, leaving a lingering trace of strawberries.

Quite a long finish with a bit mineral aftertaste.

Barrel matured for 12 months.

Get it for NZ$ 18.
