Deconstructing Pinot Noir

Often referred to as “the heartbreak grape”, Pinot Noir has eluded many a winemaker. It’s a tricky grape to work with both in the vineyard and in the cellar, besides which, it requires a unique terroir to express its full potential. Luckily for us, a number of South African winemakers have managed to get it right, producing Pinot Noirs that rival some of the world’s best. In this tasting we will explore the characteristics of this revered variety and taste some of South Africa’s finest examples to uncover differences in style and region.
