The results are in, and we are excited to share that the Beeslaar 2022 has been recognised as one of the ABSA Top 10 Pinotage winners! We are also proud to announce that our 2021 Pinotage was a runner-up at the awards, marking another year of remarkable achievements for our wines.
This is our 4th ABSA Top 10 Pinotage award, following in the footsteps of the 2020, 2019, and 2018 vintages.
The Beeslaar Pinotage 2022, has a dense crimson-red colour, bursting with scented aromas of cranberry, raspberry, crème de cassis and macerated cherries, supported by notes of oak spice, tobacco leaf and Fynbos shrub. The palate is rich, luscious, and powerful, with a framework of juicy plum and black cherry flavours complemented by French oak, potpourri spices and an earthy herbaceous undertone. The wine offers layers of dark chocolate, bramble berries and Asian spice along with an integrated and gentle oak-driven essence on the lengthy finish. A wine that is age-worthy, complex and elegant.
We’re honoured to be in such esteemed company. A massive congratulations to the other nine Top 10 recipients! South African Pinotage is in excellent hands, and our heartfelt thanks go to the judging panel for their undoubtedly challenging task, given the exceptional quality of all 20 finalists.
