Harvested from the western part of Elgin, the PN115 tends to have smaller berries and compact clusters resulting in wines that have aromatic integrity yet are dense with complex juicy black fruit. A firmer tannic structure make these wines seem more ‘masculine’ with flavours of black cherry, cassis, leather, tobacco and earth. It is grown in Table Mountain Sandstone, a mix of sand and pebbles that give delicacy and lifted fruity flavours.
A youthful nose is filled with bright Bing cherry, sweet spice and pine needles. The palate entry is elegant and delicately framed with pliant tannins and underpinned by vivacious acidity. The mid-palate has a sheen and feels silky smooth with notes of dark chocolate, cherry flesh, forest floor and freshly tilled soil. Linear in shape, the wine is dextrous and has an extended finish.
