Rhino Run Pinotage 2023
Pinotage
Description
Crafted as part of the Rhino Run wine range from Van Loveren Family Vineyards, Rhino Run Pinotage 2023 honours South Africa’s iconic black rhino while contributing directly to conservation efforts - with a portion of every bottle sold supporting anti-poaching initiatives through SANParks. Rooted in the celebrated terroir of Robertson in the Western Cape, the vines benefit from warm days and cool nights that gently ripen Pinotage, South Africa’s signature red. The winemaking focuses on balanced extraction and barrel maturation, allowing rich fruit and subtle spice to emerge without over-manipulation, creating a wine that reflects both place and purpose.
Colour: Deep ruby red, with a bright rim suggesting youthful vibrancy in the glass.
Nose: Aromas of ripe red and black berries, bright strawberry and cherry notes sit alongside subtle spice and hints of vanilla from oak ageing, offering both fruit and complexity.
Palate: Medium to full-bodied, with a juicy core of red berry and dark fruit flavours. Silky tannins and gentle acidity give structure, while oak integration adds layers of toast and light cedar, supporting but not overwhelming the fruit.
Finish: Clean and lingering, with savoury notes and a soft echo of berry and spice that invites another sip.

Rhino Run Pinotage 2023
- Food Pairing : Rhino Run Pinotage 2023 pairs beautifully with the rich, smoky flavours typical of South African barbecue (braai) such as boerewors or sticky BBQ ribs, where its ripe fruit and gentle spice complement the savoury char. It also stands up well to slow-roasted lamb shanks or beef brisket, with the wine’s tannic structure matching the richness of the meat. For a contrast-style pairing, enjoy it alongside a mature cheddar or Gouda, where the savoury, nutty character of the cheese highlights the wine’s deep berry profile.
