Tasting Note

The inspiration for this wine came from a stubborn belief that Pinotage today has its place among more established varieties. It can produce wines of intrigue and complexity -without becoming harsh, chemical or showing any of the other cruel features that its detractors have reason to name. Treat it meanly and Pinotage will show its angry side.Through its clarity and purity of fruit, its lithe texture and its absence of any kind of aggression. It is not a monster; it is a soul with a heart and one which will repay kindness with abundant generosity of its own.

Product Notes

Radford Dale Frankenstein Pinotage is a masterful South African wine, embodying dark, intense flavours. Welcoming you with a hearty, robust aroma, it is predominantly Pinot Noir with an enchanting hint of Cinsault. Harbouring nuances of red and black fruit and a touch of earthiness, it boasts a surprisingly silky texture which imparts a long, sumptuous finish. Exuding sophistication, the wine is well-revered for its complexity, depth, and old-world charm. Matured impeccably for 12 months in French oak barrels, the Frankenstein Pinotage is a luxurious treat for any oenophile. It truly personifies a brilliantly crafted, well-balanced, exquisite Pinotage.
