This wine reflects Graham Joshua Beck's great love of Shiraz. A co-fermentation of Shiraz (93%) and Viognier (7%). The Joshua is barrel matured for 15 months in new fill Oak. The two varieties form a seamless combination to create a rich and rewarding wine of depth and complexity. The perfect accompaniment to rich meat stews, grilled rack of lamb, rare roast beef and ostrich fillet.

Offering rich black cherry and raspberry flavours and floral notes, fine tannins and a mouth filling lingering complexity. Overgaauw is a wine estate of distinction situated on south facing slopes overlooking the Stellenbosch Valley. Deep granite soils and cool sea breezes enable the ideal cultivation of noble grape varieties. The resultant wines are nurtured to perfection by the inherited passion and experience of four generations of Van Velden Winemakers.

The Painted Wolf is also known as the African Wild Dog or Painted Dog - a highly social animal, each with its own ornate markings.  The den is at the heart of the pack, a place where Painted Wolves relax and bond.  The Den Pinotage is luscious, fruit-packed and full-bodied - a social wine to enjoy with family, friends and good food.

As you "paint your palate" with this wine your are making a contribution to the conservation of this rare and endangered animal.
