Description
 
The name Kanonkop is derived from a kopje (hillock), from which a cannon was fired in the 17th Century to alert farmers of ships approaching the Cape. Today, Kanonkop is a fourth generation family estate situated on the lower slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain in the Stellenbosch Region. They have been described by those in the know as the South African equivalent of a Premier Cru or First Growth and their collection of international awards is testament to this success.

Deep ruby with hints of purple at the edge, the 2018 Kadette Pinotage displays juicy and healthy fruit tones of black cherry, spiced blackberry with dusty plum blossoms, damson flower, subtle tones of sweet tobacco, leather and black and red spices. Medium to full-bodied, the juicy mouthfeel is pleasurable and balanced, unfolding into flavors of spiced red fruit compote with elements of black tea and bitter dark chocolate. The conclusion lingers with a soft tannic edge that makes this wine incredibly food friendly and will remain so for the next five years. Probably the most exciting aspect of the Kadette Pinotage is that I can see the overall quality increasing, as this specific vintage marks the highest ever score for this bottling. Wine Advocate 88
