Case of Neil Ellis Bottelary Hills Pinotage

Just outside Cape Town lies the rolling hills of the Bottelary region, creating a unique terrain for the cultivation of Pinotage; one of the wild horses in grape varieties. This is where sun, slopes and sea breezes combine to produce an elegant, medium bodied and well-structured Pinotage that has been described as one of the best examples of the variety in the world.

Food Pairing

Venison, oxtail and chocolate dessert.
