Ghost Corner Pinot Noir 2025
R420.00
Grapes are hand-harvested between 22.8–23.8°B, of which 15% whole clusters are added to some of the tanks with a natural fermentation taking place, while other tanks are inoculated for fermentation. During fermentation, gentle extraction takes place with one pumpover a day and two manual punchdowns of the grape cap. A maximum temperature of 27°C is reached. On completion of fermentation, grapes are pressed and transferred into 228l French oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation is completed in the barrel and maturation takes place over 10 months.
Subtle whiffs of mocha and dark chocolate open on the nose, followed by a kaleido- scope of red fruit including sweet and sour cherries, plums and pomegranates. These vibrant fruit aromas gradually give way to more savoury notes of damp forest floor, cured meat and herbaceous coastal scrub, reflecting the rugged landscape and windswept vineyards of the Agulhas coast. Whilst drinking beautifully now, this complex wine will evolve with time in bottle, developing greater savouriness, finesse and an increasingly ethereal character. For best enjoyment, chill the wine to 18 °C.

Description
The Ghost Corner range is inspired by the extreme coastal area around Cape Agulhas near Elim, known as ‘Spookdraai’, where many ships have been wrecked. Folklore has it that the ghosts of sailors who perished through the years can be seen wandering the wild waters. These wines are as intriguing and extreme as the story of their origin at the southernmost tip of the Cape winelands.
