Iona Single Vineyard Kloof Pinot Noir 2018

PRICE PER BOX OF 6

The Kloof Vineyard is dry land farmed and produces wine that is totally unique to South Africa. It has an inviting pretty, floral, perfumed nose with an abundance of pure red fruits that include cherries, raspberries and strawberries. The palate is soft, gentle and alluring, intricate yet layered, with fine powdery chalky tannins and lively acidity – perfectly balanced. The wine is exciting with good intensity and texture and has significant ageing potential.

"Two Vineyards called Kloof and Kroon. Both differ markedly from each other, suggesting that the term “terroir” is meaningful in this context. One is palpably “earthier”, while the other as an almost crystalline purity. They are likely to cement Elgins and Iona’s reputation for the so-called heartbreak grape and add to the growing fascination with single-site wines.”
