200 years of Durbanville, a century of Pinotage, and 100 years of Afrikaans.
This elegant cool-climate Pinotage embodies the unity, skill, and rich heritage that define our region.
The winemakers of the Durbanville Wine Valley have come together to showcase the region’s collective talent, reaffirming its standing not only as a Sauvignon Blanc stronghold but also as a source of distinguished cool climate red wines. They selected standout barrels of Pinotage to create this limited bottling of only 1,170 magnum bottles.
The label design tells the story of Durbanville’s land and legacy. Framed in Delft-blue illustration, it features the historic Dutch Reformed Church, a Cape Dutch homestead found on the family-owned farms, and the iconic outline of Table Mountain as seen from the hills of Durbanville. A garland of pumpkins, wheat and grapes pays tribute to the region’s rich agricultural heritage. All wording on the label appears in Afrikaans, marking the centenary of Afrikaans as an official language and reflecting its cultural prominence in Cape Town’s northern district.
This wine opens with layered aromas of blackcurrant, prune, and cherry, lifted by gentle undertones of winter spice. The palate is elegant and well-structured, guided by soft, powdery tannins that provide length and finesse. A lively natural acidity brings vibrancy and definition, allowing the purity of the fruit to shine. This wine offers both freshness and depth, with the potential to develop further complexity over time.
