Tasting - Stellar Organics Pinotage 2014
Name: Stellar Organics Pinotage
Variety: 100% Pinotage
Region: Western Cape
Country: South Africa
Year: 2014
Price: $9
Winery Review: A deep, ruby red wine with a dark cherry tobacco nose. There is a slight sweetness up front on the palate with coffee and dark chocolate notes. Firm tannins and acid round out this wine and give structure.
My Review: On the nose, I got some fruity flavors but not a distinct kind. On the palate, I was surprised to find myself tasting marshmallows and some chocolate. Unlike the review, I did not find any tannins in this wine but did find it to be pretty light in its feel. Overall, I thought this was a pretty interesting wine to try because it is Organic and Vegan Friendly. I have never tasted a wine that reminds me of marshmallows so I'm wondering if this flavor is due its being organic!
I did not have food with this wine.
