The Beeslaar Pinotage 2019 smells of black cherries, wild strawberries, plums and cinnamon, which is typical of the Beeslaar Pinotages. Complex and very elegant on the palate, with fine tannins that perfectly complement the lush fruit flavours. The palate is wonderfully balanced and elegant and the finish is juicy, long and intense...
