Scions of Sinai Feniks

Bernhard Bredell is an example of a new generation of South African winemakers who approach things differently. Small-scale, with a great sense of history, terroir and nature. That looks like the 'natural wine movement' we see in Europe. It produces fascinating wines. Bernhard's are always flawless and light-footed. This is his Pinotage. From a vineyard on quartz soil. From almost 50 year old vines and a yield of 2.2 tons per hectare; extremely little. Spontaneously fermented, neither clarified nor filtered.

Droppy, with small red fruits of blackberries and cherries and lots of minerality. Very refined. Rather light than heavy. A bit of tannin and a lot of tension.
