About This Wine
Curioture
Pinotage
Curioture is once again bringing a unique regional specialty to the table. Our Pinotage is crafted in South Africa's classic "Coffee Pinotage" style, boasting notes of roast coffee, chocolate and ripe berry fruit. After Swartland's warm, dry conditions create smooth textures and capture concentrated fruit notes, winemakers use heavily toasted oak barrels to achieve this style's coffee-like character. The final wine showcases both the winemaker's hand and the area's unique climate. Instead of serving this Pinotage with a meal, we encourage you to enjoy it by itself. Take your time to swirl, sniff and enjoy each layer of its complexity. It would also make an excellent post-dinner pairing with hard, salty cheeses or roasted nuts that allow the wine to remain the star of the show.
