It is with great pride that Audacia brings you an authentic and petented "no sulphites (SO2) or other preservatives added" red wine, made using Aspalathus Linearis (Rooibos) and Cyclopia Genistoides (Honey Bush) wood as part of the unique wine making recipe and process.

Rooibos and Honey Bush are indegenous to the Western Cape of South Africa and produce wood with rare characteristics and properties that contribute to the making of this deliciouis unique red wine.

This wine is produced by the La Motte Cellar, historic landmark in the Franschhoek Valley, home to South Africa's gourmet capital.  The style reflects old-world traditions skilfully harmonized with new-world intensity.

Carefully selected grapes from different vineyards have produced pepper, spice and berry fruit flavours, typical of this varietal.  A firm structure, with a long finish.  Perfect with roasts and spicy plates.

Our emblem of a Pinotage vine leaf shows the distinctive tooth-shaped gap between the first two lobes. Winemaker Beyers Truter, world renowned for his Pinotage wines, was named International Winemaker of the Year at the 1991 International Wine and Spirit Competition held in London. Pinotage is unique to South Africa. It was created in Stellenbosch by cross-pollinating Pinot Noir and Hermitage (Cinsaut) cultivars. The grapes derive from unirrigated bush vines of 20 - 40 years old in the famous Stellenbosch wine region. Full bodied and complex, this wine embodies the best features of Pinotage. The blackberry and cassis flavours are well balanced with the subtle wood maturation characer. It can be enjoyed now, but the smooth richness will develop even further for up to five years. Ideal with venison, red meat, curries and spicy foods.
