Seven Flags

2014 Elgin Pinot Noir

The Paul Cluver Seven Flags is a remarkable Pinot Noir from the picturesque Elgin region, celebrated for its cool climate that enhances the varietal's elegance. This 2014 vintage showcases a stunning red hue, hinting at the wine's vibrant character. On the palate, it's a harmonious blend of lush fruit and subtle earthiness, with prominent flavors of dark cherry and raspberry complemented by notes of spice. The wine exhibits a medium body, refreshing acidity, and well-integrated tannins that lend structure without overwhelming the delicate fruit profile. It is also dry, making it incredibly versatile for food pairings, from roasted poultry to mushroom risotto. This Pinot Noir truly reflects the essence of its terroir, offering a nuanced experience that delights the senses.

South Africa

With its mountainous, maritime-influenced winegrowing regions, South Africa produces top-quality Cabernet Sauvignon and Chenin Blanc and premium Syrah, Pinotage, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The Dutch brought vines here back in the 1600s to satiate their thirsty sailors en route to India, but they probably never imagined just how important to the wine world South Africa would one day become. Indeed, it took centuries for South Africa to discover its full potential. Most of the country's winegrowing areas thrive in the southwest, known as the Western Cape. Its most famous regions are an easy drive from Cape Town and include Stellenbosch, Swartland, Breedekloof and Franschhoek.
