The tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing a structured backbone that enhances the overall complexity of the wine. With a dry finish, this Pinotage is not only robust in flavor but also beautifully balanced, making it an excellent companion to hearty dishes or enjoyed on its own.

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
