Excitement fills the air at Survivor Wines as we proudly announce a Gold medal win for our maiden release, Survivor Reunion 2022, at the prestigious Red Blend Challenge. Scoring over 90 points, this achievement adds to the anticipation surrounding this remarkable blend.
Crafted from a harmonious combination of 45% Pinot Noir (Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge), 35% Pinotage (Swartland), and 20% Cinsault (Swartland), Survivor Reunion 2022 promises to tantalize taste buds with its complex flavours and exquisite balance. It has been a career-long dream for Survivor Cellar Master, Pierre Wahl, to produce a wine from the noble Pinot Noir variety. As the years went by his love grew for its sibling, Pinotage, and his bucket-list shifted from making a single cultivar wine from Pinot Noir, to bringing the ‘broken’ family back together again and naming the cuvée, Reunion. In this almost ‘duplicate’ blend the noble parent, Pinot Noir, is still being honoured by making it the leading cultivar in both the percentage as well as in the taste profile. With a bright red colour, this wine is showing a brightness of red fruit shining through the core of intense blackberry, cassis, and mouth-watering spices. The palate is medium to full bodied and has a velvety tannin structure with a well-managed acid to finish.
Wine enthusiasts eagerly await the opportunity to experience the unique sophistication of Survivor Reunion 2022 firsthand. Stay tuned for the release of Survivor Reunion 2022, where every sip tells a story of passion, skill, and unwavering commitment to quality.
