Elgin Valley & Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, South Africa — 100% Pinot Noir
Earthy forest floor and savoury truffle notes weave through concentrated black cherry compote. Soft & rounded-textured tannins with a fresh natural acidity create harmony, depth and tension. The clay soils contribute a blocky and firm, structured feel, while careful extraction preserves elegance. Pair with venison, truffle risotto, beef bourguignon, roast duck, or umami-driven Asian dishes that echo the wine’s savoury core. Minimal intervention and precise barrel selection highlight purity, restraint and the variety’s earthy expression. Catherine Marshall uses sustainable techniques to create, complex, and refined wines.
