"(2019) From bush vines that are up to 63 years old, this spent 18 months in French oak, 75% of it new. Rich, ripe red berries and smoky, fragrant and cedary oak. A really sumptuous style, coffee deep and the fruit is black and glossy. Silky in terms of texture and te fruit, tannin and acid structure, spicy and ripe into the finish."

"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Kanonkop Estate Pinotage" from the vintage 2009 on 01.01.2019 with 91 of 100 points.
"(2019) At this point the bush vines were 57 years old. This spent 16 months in French oak, 75% new. Similar recipe as the 2016 tasted alongside. Has more of the estery character associated with Pinotage, but there?s an earthier quality through the ageing, the sweet fruit is there on the palate, a stripe of dry tannin giving extra grip, a fresh finish. More Pinotage personality perhaps, though less slick and modern in feel."

"(2014) >From a Stellenbosch original and Pinotage specialist, this 14.5% abv wine has a buoyancy and bounce to the fruit, plenty of ripe red fruits, bolstered by a creamy, but not too toasty or coffeeish oak, letting the fruit sing out. The palate has a rounded, silky textured weight and appeal, with really very good juiciness and fruit-skin tang of cherry and plum skins, and a racy, fresh appeal even though some more of that creamy, lightly toasty oak comes through. Stays bright and focused. A very orthodox and convincing fine wine Pinotage."

Saftig, elegant, gute Komplexität, feine Tannine, angenehme Extraktsüße, feine Kirschenfrucht, zart nach Banane und Nougat im Abgang, ein kraftvoller und zugleich seidiger Speisenbegleiter mit sicherem Entwicklungspotenzial."

"(2012) Lovely gentle development. Some gentle coffee and dried blood, a plummy richness to the fruit, hints of spice and still of raspberry. The palate still has good fruit, with a slightly aggressive quality arguably (Abrie thinks so) but lovely stuff."

"(2005) There's a wonderfully spicy, deep and briary character here, wrapped around a rich, berry-fruited core, with intriguing notes of violets and kirsch. On the palate a chocolaty richness and sweet blackberry fruit extend into a long, harmonious finish."
