WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Nederburg The Winemasters Cinsault Pinotage 2021 is produced using stainless steel fermentation, a technique chosen to maintain the fresh fruit aromas and flavors of the Cinsault and Pinotage grapes. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for a few months in stainless steel tanks. This process avoids oak influence, allowing the wine's inherent fruit character to be the primary focus. The residual sugar is less than 0.3 g/100ml, indicating a dry wine. Nederburg, as part of Distell, adheres to principles of sustainability and ethical production throughout its winemaking operations.
