The Fat Man was an institution at the local train station, where he would greet new and familiar faces with a friendly smile and interesting anecdote, always accompanied by his loyal hound. This captivating Pinotage Wine takes a leaf from his book, making a memorable impression with layers of succulent red fruit, oak spice and supple tannins.

Tasting Note

The Fat Man is generous and inviting on entry, with juicy red berries and plums with hints of milk chocolate, oregano and spice. This is a clean, smooth, medium-bodied wine that is refreshing with a dry finish.

Food Pairing

Perfect with lasagne and arrabiata pasta dishes.
