Darling Black Granite Pinotage 2023

Darling Black Granite Vintage Reserve 2023 is a bold, full-bodied red blend shaped by the decomposed granite soils and cool Atlantic influence of the Darling wine region.

A blend of Shiraz, Cinsaut, Grenaché and Mourvèdre delivers generous dark fruit, a smooth texture and beautifully integrated tannins. Careful maturation in a combination of French and American oak adds depth and complexity while retaining the wine's rich fruit character.
