Description
2022 Blue Owl Pinotage
by Allee Bleue is a striking red wine made from 100% Pinotage, a grape variety that thrives in South Africa’s diverse terroir. This wine offers vibrant aromas of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and plum, with subtle hints of smoke, spice, and earthy undertones. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with smooth tannins, balanced acidity, and flavors of juicy black fruit, complemented by nuances of coffee and a touch of vanilla from oak aging. Aged in a combination of French oak and stainless steel, it has a perfect balance of fruit expression and oak complexity. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, barbecue, and hearty stews. Allee Bleue, a renowned winery in the Western Cape, is committed to creating wines that reflect both the tradition of the region and a forward-thinking approach, producing wines of exceptional character and quality.
