Pinotage, a truly South African grape, originated from a cross between Pinot Noir and Cinsaut.  The FAT Bastard Pinotage was made from specially selected grapes from our ripe harvest resulting in a wine which displays intense fruit flavour and character.

All fruit was hand-harvested and gently pressed to retain these expressive aromas and flavours.  The wine was aged in small oak barrels to add greater weight and complexity.

The nose of this wine shows ripe plum and banana with a lingering impression of chocolate and plum pudding.

Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Style: Made in a classical yet approachable style with ripe black fruit aromas and a touch of oak spice. The palate is generous, with soft tannins and a long flavourful finish. Serving: Will complement grilled meats, casseroles, oven roasted vegetables and hearty pasta dishes. Keeping: Delicious now. Will benefit from further bottle maturation.

Series C takes its name from the Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc which predominantly defines the style of this wine. The Series C style is that of a firm, powerful and concentrated wine, rich in fruit at release and blended for long aging. The Cabernet comes from our most potent blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon, the Cabernet Franc displays hints of violet flowers and elegance while the Merlot component gives it a velvety texture.
