The Hamilton Russell Pinot Noir has aromas and flavours of raspberry, cherry and plum, with hints of game. Their wines are regarded as the best in SA, and one of the most southerly wine Estates in Africa.
Wine Style Our low-vigour, stony, clay-rich soil, cool maritime mesoclimate, naturally tiny yields of well under 35 hl/ha and our
philosophy of expressing our terroir in our wines – give rise to a certain tightness, tannin line and elevated length to balance the
richness and generosity of our Pinot noir. Our Pinot noir is not overtly fruity, soft and “sweet” and it generally shows hints of
that alluring savoury “primal” character along with a dark, spicy, complex primary fruit perfume
