Notes

"Pioneering in spirit, no family has been more influential than the Cluvers in establishing Elgin as one of SA's finest Chardonnay and Pinot Noir regions. The Paul Cluver Seven Flags Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are the benchmarks that all other wines from this region are measured against. With Andries Burger's passion, and the assistance of Burgundian consultant Martin Prieur, these flagship wines have seen a steady and marked refinement over the last few years." - Wine Cellar

Arguably the most Burgundian of Cape Pinot Noirs, guided by the gentle hand of consultant Martin Prieur, this scented, refined red comes from three sites and is made with clones 113, 115 and 777. Savoury red fruit, bright acidity, filigree tannins and deftly integrated wood. Tim Atkin 2018

To my mind, this i the best Seven Flags Pinot release to date, a glorious expression of a fantastic Cape vintage. Deeply coloured, it's serious, dense, complex stuff that's made to develop in bottle rather than dazzle in its youth. Plummy, well balanced and rich, it has a patina of new oak, filigree tannins and a core of dark fruit.

Tim Atkin 2016
