The Spioenkop 1900 Pinotage 2020 has a deep ruby color and aromas of blackberries, cherries, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and rich, with flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and a subtle smokiness. The tannins are firm and well-structured, leading to a long and complex finish. Spioenkop Wines is known for producing premium wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Elgin Valley. The winery is named after the Battle of Spion Kop, a historic battle that took place in South Africa in 1900 during the Boer War. The winery’s owner and winemaker, Koen Roose, is a Belgian who fell in love with the region and decided to make it his home. He is passionate about producing wines that express the character of the vineyards and the people who tend to them, resulting in wines that are balanced, elegant, and true to their origin.
