Tasting - Oracle Pinotage

Name: Oracle Pinotage
Variety: Pinotage
Country: South Africa
Year: 2014
Price: $7.95

Tasting Notes: An unusual style of Pinotage with complex aromas of black pepper, smoke, tomato, and dark fruit. The palate is packed with ripe mixed berry flavors, making this unoaked red wine a real crowd-pleaser.

My review: Great valued wine, too bad it was completely sold out by the time I got to taste it.  This Pinotage was packing a smoky dried plum/fig punch.  It tasted extremely smoky, in fact all I could think about was cured meats or fire roasted fruit (whatever that is)

I had this wine without food.
