The Wine
Bellevue made history in 1953 by planting one of South Africa’s first Pinotage vineyards – and this bold 2021 vintage honours that legacy in full-bodied style. From those same historic roots comes a red wine layered with black cherry, plum and subtle dark chocolate richness, framed by smoky oak and a touch of earthy spice. It’s bold, yet beautifully balanced, with supple tannins and a long, smooth finish. The hallmark Pinotage edge – a whiff of smoke and wild herbs – adds intrigue. A proud expression of South Africa’s signature grape, it’s superb with flame-grilled meats, game or mushroom risotto. A true taste of Cape red wine heritage in every glass and a worthy winner of a 5-star rating from South Africa's revered Platter's Wine Guide.
