South Africa is upping their game. Nice and fresh. Just enough citrus and fruit to make you think it's still summer!

My first Pinotage ever. Visited the Spier winery in the Stellenbosch region in South Africa during the 2010 World Cup. Because of this wine, I now always look for Pinotages. You can't go wrong with this wine or varietal. — 10 years ago

Man, I'm convinced that Spier doesn't make bad wine - at least not under the vintage collection. While the Pinotage has long been a favorite sub-$20 bottle of mine, I've never tried the Shiraz.. but I must say, I am pleasantly surprised.
Definite tobacco, cedar, and charcoal on the nose. Lovely red fruit, vanillin, textured mouthfeel, with loads of pepper and spice on the finish. I usually don't care for Shiraz, but this one is more restrained than Aussie Shiraz, which may be why I like it so much. Balanced, finesseful, but with enough density and character to turn a few heads. Very nice effort. — 9 years ago
