Wamakersvallei also offers the Bain's Way range of single-varietal wines, both red and white, produced as a tribute to Andrew Bain. Mr. Bain is immortalized in Wellington especially as the creator of 'The Gateway to the North' through Bainskloof Pass, the very slopes of which nurture the vineyards from which Bain's Way wines are produced. The Bain's Way range consists of fruit-driven wines - well rounded and distinctly South African - at unmatched value for money.
VINIFICATION: 100% Pinotage. The grapes were picked at optimum maturity and fermented dry on the skins at 28 C. Thereafter, the free run portion was placed in a second and a third fill oak barrels for 9 to12 months.
TASTING NOTES: Bright strawberry on the nose laced with banana. Complex ripe fruit flavours extend to the palate where smooth tannins ensure a rich mouthfeel.
