Intellego The Pink Moustache 2024
R182.00
A light red. The Cinsaut and Mourvèdre bring candy floss, cherry and red apple; while the Syrah brings weight and some tannin. Delicious.
In this instance, facial hair symbolizes the three different styles of wine red(beard), rose (clean skin) and the light red(moustache). This wine represents the lighter red style and the word “pink” describes the colour as it’s a mix between a pink/light red colour.
A short 3-day skin contact fermentation before continuing in small old barrels for another 5 months. Racked into stainless steel where it spends another 6 weeks before bottling.
48% Cinsaut, 35% Syrah, 17% Mourvèdre from dry farm bushvine vineyards in Abbotsdale and Paardeberg on alluvial and granite soils.
