Cafe Culture Pinotage 2009

The tasting notes for the Cafe Culture Pinotage mention “…a distinct coffee character.  Pinotage grapes have been persuaded to show an often hidden mocha flavour – nothing is added and nothing is taken away.”  Unfortunately I didn’t taste the mocha/ coffee flavours.  I’m not saying those flavours aren’t there, I just couldn’t taste them.  I did enjoy the wine though and I don’t usually consume a pinotage.  It was very smooth and light to medium bodied.  Easy to drink, no food pairing required.  Another favourite from South Africa.
