Description
2022 Allee Bleue Old Vine Pinotage
is a bold and expressive red wine crafted from 100% Pinotage, sourced from old vines that impart depth and complexity to the final product. This South African classic boasts rich aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, layered with notes of mocha, spice, and subtle smoky undertones. The palate is full-bodied and well-structured, featuring velvety tannins, balanced acidity, and a lingering finish with hints of dark chocolate and vanilla. Aged in a combination of French oak barrels and stainless steel, this wine achieves a refined balance between fruit purity and oak influence. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, barbecued dishes, and aged cheeses. Allee Bleue, a historic estate in the Western Cape, is renowned for its commitment to showcasing the best of South Africa’s terroir, producing wines that combine elegance, richness, and a strong sense of place.
