Douglas Green
We believe that winemaking is part science, part alchemy: in the process of coaxing the flavours from the grapes we provide a window for some magic to enter the world. The Douglas Green winemaking team remains true to tried-and-tested tradition, but also draws on modern techniques and innovative processes in a sustainable manner. Our overarching aim is to create distinctly fresh, fruit-driven, deliciously drinkable wines. In order to do so we draw from the vineyards of hand-selected vignerons and entrust the grapes to our dedicated oenology team who manage and control the process from the vineyard to the bottle.

Tasting Notes
Delicious for anytime drinking. Pretty salmon pink, exuberant crushed summer berries, glacé cherries, a delicate spiciness that carries through to a surge of redolently ripe berry flavours finishing with a delicious fruity intensity that is softly off dry and succulent.
History
For over 80 years, we have sourced and selected grapes to best express our South African wine land origins. Douglas Green was convinced that the quality and character of the varied vineyards of the Western Cape should not be confined, but rather combined to express the best of each region. Continuing a tradition of innovation and quality, the Douglas Green winemaking team is dedicated to producing Cape Wine at its best. Our quest is to source fruit from only the best vineyards and growers, from the best-suited regions for each variety to create our distinctive fruit-driven signature style wines. By selecting and sourcing grapes from the broad boundaries of the Cape winelands, we achieve consistent, high quality standards, vintage after vintage.
Regional Information
Wine of Origin Western Cape with fruit sourced from Robertson, Bonnievale, Wellington and Breedekloof.

Vinification Details
Grapes were harvested early with a higher natural acidity to maintain fruit integrity and brightness. The juice was removed from the skins immediately to maintain the depth of colour. The wine was fermented with specifically selected yeast, normally used to ferment white wine. Fermentation took place between 13 - 15ºC. The young wine was left on the fine lees for further complexity and integration before final blending and bottling.

Unexpectedly good
I tend to swerve New World rose because the ones I have had are too jammy for me, but I thought a pinotage from a very respected company was worth taking a risk on. It is. A lot of ripe strawberry on the nose but beautifully crisp and dry on the palate. It was discounted when I bought it, but would be worth the full £8.59.
