Full ripeness at lower alcohol and the longer hang-time afforded by cooler more marginal sites, combined with the complex, more classic fruit aromas and structure, resulting from both granitic and clay-rich soil, make this wine a highly individual expression of South Africa's unique grape variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e94 Tasting Panel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClose to the cool Atlantic coast, Hemel-en-Aarde, formerly part of Walker Bay (which has been elevated to district status), was established as an appellation in 2006. Smoke, blackberry, and plum bathe the palate, where spiced cedar offers texture with radiating undertones of roast coffee and cinnamon. The aromas linger as long as the satin-lined finish does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e91 James Suckling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA vibrant red, with a core of ripe mulberry, raspberry and boysenberry fruit flavors. Light, supple tannins and lively acidity provide fine definition for the medium-bodied frame, and notes of violet, thyme, anise and iron linger on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e91 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Cape Coast wine, the Southern Right 2022 Pinotage is made with purchased grapes from the Swartland on loose granite soils. This site adds tannic structure. Made with old-vine fruit, the wine delivers dried raspberry, cherry and hints of dusty iron rust. The use of oak is downplayed, and the wine shines forth with pretty primary intensity backed by a pinch of saltiness. Winemaker Emul Ross suggests a pairing with one of those lovely Cape Malay chicken curries served in South Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e91 Wine Spectator\u003cbr\u003e\nA vibrant red, with a core of ripe mulberry, raspberry and boysenberry fruit flavors.
