Abraham & The Heretics

Abraham Izak Perold created the Pinotage varietal by crossing Pinot Noir and Cinsault. Infamously described by one winemaker in the Cape as ‘The bastard son of Pinot Noir’, the grape rarely gets a good press – even within a nation that considers it their ‘signature’ variety.

‘Abraham and the Heretics’ is something of a tongue-in-cheek challenge to those non-believers to accept the variety into their vinous lives.

A vibrant purple colour. It is packed with lively red berry, plum and sweet black cherry fruit aromas and flavours and there’s a hint of spice and smokiness on the finish with well integrated tannins giving a complex depth to the palate.
