About this Item
Cuvée Cinéma Pinot Noir 2015
6 (1 x 6) 750ml
Scenes from a movie based on the life of Napoleon were shot on the Cinéma site the year before vineyards were introduced, which gave this wine its name. This Cuvée is a selection of barrels made from said single vineyard, a premium site in the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge that was meticulously designed to produce the highest quality Pinot Noir with the planting of high density vines using disease-free Dijon clones.

Critics Ratings
'Show-stopping, wild-fermented flagship. 2015 from Overberg vines shows purity, vibrant fruit flavours and concentrated richness. 30% new oak gives structure that will last. Class act. 30% whole bunches, as Peter Max.'- Platter's SA Wine Guide 2017, 4.5*
Subtle, scented and showing the fresh acidity that's a feature of many Pinot Noirs from the Ridge, this appealing cuvée is fermented with 40% stems. There's a hint of reduction on the nose, but it adds to the complexity of the raspberry and red cherry flavours.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2016, 94/100
