Uncork a bottle and taste the legacy of South Africa. The Last of The First Pinotage is more than just a wine; it’s a testament to the country’s unique winemaking heritage. This remarkable wine is crafted from the historic vines on Schapenberg, a vineyard block that has defied time to become a cherished relic and a source of truly exceptional fruit.
Unlike many of the more robust, inland Pinotages, this wine offers a distinct, coastal expression of the grape. The cool maritime breezes from the False Bay coast help to produce grapes with a natural freshness and aromatic complexity. The result is a wine that is both intensely flavorful and surprisingly delicate, with a finesse that is more akin to a fine Pinot Noir than a typical Pinotage. It is a wine that was awarded “Platter’s Pinotage of the Year” for a previous vintage, a sign of its outstanding quality and style.
This 2022 vintage captures the vibrant soul of the old vines, delivering an experience that is both a nod to the past and a look into the exciting future of South African wine
