Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, South AfricaKanonkop is one of the most respected producers of pinotage in South Africa. Kadette may be the entry-level offering, but there’s a level of sophistication here that sets it apart from its peers, with impressive concentration and depth. It's fresh and pure, with sappy wild berries and layers of spice. It’s far from the coffee-tinged stereotype of this oft-maligned grape variety. Rather, there's an excellent interplay of fruit and savoury complexity, with impeccable balance and fine-grained tannins that make this a fantastic pour right out of the gates.Tasted: 01 January 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, South AfricaKadette is the mini pinotage at Kanonkop, not that it is all that mini. The nose is a lot of the classic smoked meat and earthy tones with slight plummy fruit and a five spice dusting. The palate is medium-full with black fruit and spice on a silky palate save for a few tannic tugs at the end. The acidity is fresh, the wine is well made, but I have to admit, it is an acquired taste for me.Tasted: 27 June 2021Tasted by: Prices:
