{"product_id":"eikeboom-pinotage-western-cape-2010","title":"Eikeboom Pinotage Western Cape 2010","description":"\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tEikeboom Pinotage Western Cape is the result of the cross between Pinot Noir and Cinsault varieties. Pinotage was created by in South Africa in 1925 by Stellenbock University professor A.I. Perold, during experiments to develop new varieties.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThe Eikeboom Pinotage tastes like a cross of Pinot Noir and Zinfandel. It has some finesse and some power all together. It is juicy, fruity, new world Rhone style fruit bomb.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\"Interestingly enough, when one looks at the different grape varietals pioneered in South Africa, Pinotage only represents eight percent of the production, which was certainly a surprise to me. Slightly more intense Pinotage than the Riebeek recommended elsewhere in this report, this dark-colored 2010 possesses cranberry and cherry richness intermixed with some spice box, earth and herbs. It is fresh, medium-bodied and could be served chilled if readers desire, given its Beaujolais-like weight and texture. Drink it over the next 1-2 years. \"\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cb\u003eWine Advocate June 2012, Robert Parker 87 Points\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eikeboom Winery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948722483247,"sku":"SA0EE260001PTM","price":13.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/eikeboom-pinotage-western-cape-2010","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
