Kaapzicht, Steytler Pinotage named Decanter Best Varietal Wine

Congrats to Kaapzicht, Steytler Pinotage 2006 for being named on the Decanter Regional Trophy list as the best red, South African, single varietal wine priced over 10 pounds and best international red, single varietal wine priced over 10 pounds.

The Decanter tasting notes read:

Voluptuous, heady nose with very precise, black fruits, plums, mocha and tar. Full-bodied and opulent in the mouth, ripe and supple, fine-grained tannins with plenty of spice to enliven the finish.
