Clos Malverne Basket Pressed Pinotage 1998

Clos Malverne Basket Pressed Pinotage (Stellenbosch) 1998: This wine has an intense, dark colour. The nose is very forward, with lots of crushed summer fruits and squashed plums. The palate has a smooth, firm, yet subtle tannic backbone. Correct acidity, combined with oodles of fruit and some Pinotage spiciness make this a delight to drink. Very good. (31/8/00)
