Critic Review: “A disclaimer: I have never cared much for Pinotage, the indigenous South African grape variety, but this 2013 Pinotage from Indwe, named after the country's national bird, the blue crane, comes across like a light Pinot Noir. Subtle notes of cherries, spice and forest floor are followed by a round, light to medium-bodied, pure, seductive, well-crafted wine.” Drink now-2016. 
- Robert Parker

My Review: A mild red color. Floral, sweet, and cherry aromas. Flavors of black cherries, black currant, and dry fruits were well-balanced, although overall it was still too dry for my liking. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the lingering finish with a hint of spice. I agree with Robert Parker's note of a well-crafted wine. 

I tasted this without food.
