About this Item

Pinotage, 1994
1 (1 x 1) 18000ml

Often described as the South African equivalent of a Grand Cru or First Growth, Kanonkop Estate is situated on the Simonsberg mountain slopes on the outskirts of Stellenbosch. Owned by the fourth generation Krige family, Abri Beeslaar is their long-term winemaker who has won International Winemaker of the year an incredible 3 times.

The Kanonkop Pinotage has become a consistent flag bearer for the variety in serious clad, and is made from bush vines aged up to 64 years old.

  • No image for lot - as bottle size is too large to be photographed.

Critics Ratings

‘Tasted completely blind and it was really beautiful. Raspberry, pleasant oak, juicy, fresh acidity and soft and round tannin. Reminded me on some soft and smooth Napa wines. One of the best Pinotages I ever tasted and amazing for a wine of this age!’ - Cellartracker.com 92 points
