Beyerskloof Traildust Cape Blend 2022
The Traildust is a crafty blend of grapes created for serving chilled during the Summer seasons. The Pinotage, Cinsault and Pinot Noir provide for a generous amount of red fruit, cherries, and plum. A well-balanced wine with a juicy middle, so well-rounded tannins, and a sweet fruit finish. This wine is best served chilled (14°C) and combines well with Moroccan lamb and Thai curries.
Grapes were picked at optimum ripeness. Made in open fermenters, on the skins for 4-6 days at an average temp. of 26°C. Punching of the cap was done every 2 hours to extract good colour and flavours from the grapes. Aer malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine aged in third-fill French oak barrels for 12 months.
