Pinotage | Matriarch (Ses’fikile Wines)

R200,00

Crafted by a powerhouse of black women taking on the old boys’ club of South Africa’s wine scene.

Introducing a Premium Range Pinotage vintage from Ses’fikile wines, a proud bronze medallist at the Decanter World Wine Awards—proving that not all heroes wear capes, some just come in a bottle.

It’s described as medium to full-bodied, which means it can handle dinner conversations ranging from existential crises to your favorite sitcom with ease.

This oaked wonder boasts a ‘well-structured’ personality, meaning it’s more put-together than most of us on a Monday morning. It has tantalizing plum flavors with playful hints of liquorice, making it a delightful contradiction in your glass.

 “We want to be brought into the mainstream of South Africa, and that is why our wine’s name is Ses’fikele because it means ‘we have arrived’”.

Tasting notes: 

This wine, with its medium to full body, suggests that it’s had quite a sit down in an oak barrel, picking up hints of wisdom as if whispering with the ancient trees. The main act here, the plum flavors, are rich and robust, front and center like the star of the show. Meanwhile, those liquorice hints are more like a mysterious character in the shadows, adding intrigue and depth to each sip.
