The Winery of Good Hope Full Berry Fermentation Pinotage 2024

Crafted in the Stellenbosch region of South Africa, this Pinotage is produced using a full berry fermentation technique, which enhances the wine's fruit purity and depth. The vineyards benefit from a Mediterranean climate, with cooling breezes from False Bay moderating the temperatures, ensuring balanced ripening. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks to preserve the varietal's vibrant fruit character, while a portion undergoes maturation in neutral oak barrels to add subtle complexity without overpowering the fruit. The result is a medium-bodied wine with fresh red berry notes, balanced acidity, and a smooth finish, ideal for immediate enjoyment.
