Description
Kanonkop Kadette is a red wine produced from the traditional South African grape variety, Pinotage. The grapes, from vines aged between 6 and 21 years, tend to give an exotic aromatic profile. According to its vinification and ageing of 12 months in French oak barrels, this is a ruby colour wine with intense aromas of fresh plums and blackberries, combined with notes of spices such as pepper. In the mouth, it is irreverent with some earthy notes and balanced between the fruity profile and the natural acidity. Its tannins give it a muscular body, finishing the tasting with vivacity and elegance.
The Pinotage grape variety is the result of a cross between the Pinot Noir grape variety and Hermitage, combining the name of the two.
Kanonkop Wine Estate is situated in Stellenbosch, a premium quality wine-growing area of the Coastal region of the Western Cape of South Africa. Kanonkop is a place of natural beauty where hospitality, family values, tradition, history, and characters are the indespensable ingredients for creating magnificent wines, which have at their essence the granite soils, the breeze from the Atlantic Ocean, and the advanced age of the vines that originate them.
