The 2010 Grinder Pinotage - South Africa

$14.99 CDN
This is probably one of Craig's favorite go-to wines. He really likes a red with lots of depth and flavor and The Grinder does not disappoint!

The fist thing you notice about this wine when you open it is the overwhelming aroma of mocha and coffee beans. On the palate is offers hints of berry with a slight finish of  dark chocolate. You have to really like red wine to appreciate this one!

Pair it with savory rich dishes like braised short ribs or blackened steak...mmmm!

This wine repeatedly falls into my cart at the liquor store! Great to have in the wine rack for those last minute invites out to dinner.  Although its a 2010, a half hour of decanting makes this more than enjoyable!
