David & Nadia, Topography Pinotage Swartland, 2024
Pinotage has a rough reputation, and David & Nadia set out to prove it wrong, giving South Africa's own grape a Burgundian, gentle-handed treatment that trades rusticity for purity and freshness. This one comes entirely from the Siebritskloof of the Paardeberg, where old dry-farmed bush vines planted in the 1990s dig into pure decomposed granite. In the cellar it sees roughly 20% whole clusters, a single daily punch-down, and aging in old large-format wood, all aimed at keeping the wine bright rather than heavy. The Topography range is their terroir-focused, place-driven tier, and this is a genuinely elegant, mineral take on a grape most people have written off. Serve with a light chill to show off its lift.
