The Pinotage selection showcases leading producers, all of whom have become consistent flag bearers for this proudly South African variety.
About this Item
Provenance
The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.
For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.
Critics Ratings
"A compelling expression of Swartland terroir. Old-vine concentration and granite-soil minerality combining in a white of real focus, depth and savoury complexity." - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2019, 94/100 (Sep 2019)
"Lightly pungent nose and really fresh and racy with floral aromas. Exciting lift and fruit with a completeness and interest that suggests that this wine belongs in a higher price bracket." - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Nov 2019)
