  • Pinotage, nothing wrong with it, but I would say it having South Africa ancestry and the attitude towards Pinotage for me is a prime example of wine snobbery. It's a vine created out of Pinot Noir and Cinsault. As far as value for money you can't really beat South African wines as they're still able to rely on, dare I say it, cheap labour. Most grapes will have been hand picked early in the morning when the grapes are still nice and cool. Just stay clear of some of the mass grown "cheap" Pinotage.

    If you really think that Pinotage is like pain thinner perhaps you should try a Môreson, Kanonkop or Steytler, these are all affordable quality wines and might change your views on Pinotage.
