Sourced from vineyards across the Western Cape, the wines benefit from a combination of warm sunny days and cooling coastal influences that allow grapes to ripen fully while maintaining freshness and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"693\" data-end=\"1146\"\u003ePinotage, South Africa’s signature grape variety, thrives in these conditions. For Crate Worx Pinotage 2023, carefully selected grapes are fermented to highlight the variety’s natural dark fruit character while avoiding heavy extraction. The winemaking approach favours clean fruit expression with subtle oak influence, resulting in a Pinotage that is accessible, smooth and easy to enjoy while still reflecting the distinctive personality of the grape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"693\" data-end=\"1146\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1255\" data-end=\"1343\"\u003eColour:\u003cbr data-start=\"1266\" data-end=\"1269\"\u003eDeep ruby with a youthful purple rim, showing good intensity in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1255\" data-end=\"1343\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1345\" data-end=\"1471\"\u003eNose:\u003cbr data-start=\"1354\" data-end=\"1357\"\u003eRipe plum, blackberry and dark cherry aromas lead, followed by hints of mocha, vanilla and a touch of smoky spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1345\" data-end=\"1471\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1473\" data-end=\"1704\"\u003ePalate:\u003cbr data-start=\"1484\" data-end=\"1487\"\u003eMedium- to full-bodied with generous dark fruit flavours of plum and black cherry layered with subtle chocolate and toasted oak notes.
