B Vintners - Liberté Pinotage

93 points - The Wine Advocate

"The 2015 Liberte is 100% Pinotage and comes from gravelly soils, which according to winemaker Bruwer Raats helps to control vine growth. Matured in 500-liter barrels (10% new), it has a generous bouquet with beautifully defined cranberry, fynbos and rooibos aromas—very feminine. The palate is medium-bodied with a saline entry, a little grainy in texture with good backbone and a slightly savory finish. This is a Pinotage exemplar." Neal Martin

B Vintners is a collaboration between cousins Gavin Bruwer and Bruwer Raats. With a glance to the past, their aim has been to explore the heritage of the South African wine industry, and as such they have a huge focus on sourcing their grapes from the most interesting vineyard sites in the Cape. Their wine making approach is innovative but simple, allowing the wines to express their sense of place.

B Vintners was awarded 3 Five Star wines in The Platter Guide 2018.
