Description

Vibrant and fruit-forward, this Stellenbosch Pinotage bursts with ripe red berry and juicy plum flavors, supported by supple tannins and a smooth, medium-bodied frame. Its fresh, youthful energy makes it ideal for early drinking, showcasing the signature balance and easy elegance that have made Beyerskloof a household name in South African wine. A perfect companion for casual dinners or fireside sips with friends.
Despite challenging spring winds and a reduced yield, the 2024 vintage delivered exceptional quality. Careful canopy management helped combat early-season disease pressure, and a warm January pushed harvest forward. Though the crop was 20% below average, the grapes showed outstanding flavor and concentration—proof that less can sometimes mean more.

Winemaker: Anri Truter
Beyerskloof winery, the quintessential king of Pinotage and a charming family-run farm lies in the Cape Winelands of South Africa, overlooking Stellenbosch and Simonsberg mountain and producing fine and exceptional wines.
