Darling Cellars Chocoholic Pinotage
Darling Cellars Chocoholic Pinotage
Enticing aromas of Turkish delight, chocolate, red and black cherries, vanilla and red plum. These follow through to the palate with an added hint of butterscotch and smooth, supple tannins. Perfectly balanced, this wine will tickle your taste buds and reward with its structure and length of flavour.

Other | Chocoholic is composed of two distinctly differing components. 10% of the juice was created by twisting the grape stalks to induce raisening of the fruit while still on the vine. The juice from these grapes is then added to Pinotage juice which received oak contact to produce a seductively smooth, sensually soft, subtly sweet, mouth-filling moreish, unashamedly addictive, decadently Pinotage. |
