This is a Pinot Noir with structure and longevity, which confirms the theory that the Elgin Terroir produces wines very similar to those of Burgundy.

Paul Cluver Estate Pinot Noir is structured, refreshing and engaging. There is an energetic and firm character that comes through on the vibrant palate, the best of New World Pinot Noir.

As renowned sommelier Miguel Chan noted, “Paul Cluver Estate Pinot Noir shows very good colour retention in all vintages, along with some of the best structure and longevity found in the Cape.”

Visual: This wine has a lovely luminosity – the color is bright red.

Smell: The nose has delicate earthy aromas combined with flavors of red and dark fruits.

Palate: On the palate, these characteristics deepen with a light touch of oak on the finish.

Harmonization: Its natural acidity makes it a perfect partner with a variety of dishes. Enjoy it with grilled vegetables, hard cheeses (Provolone, Swiss, Emmental), game fish, game birds, duck breast, mushroom pizza.





Home to the world's best Chardonnay in 2017


Seven Flags Chardonnay won this title at the 2017 Decanter World Wine Awards. It is produced in the cool Elgin region, where the Cluver family are pioneers in grape growing.


The cool Elgin region has always been famous for its apple farms. The Cluver family, however, changed the world’s perception of this South African valley. The prestigious Decanter magazine asked Paul Cluver Jr. what the biggest difference is between apple farmers and grape farmers. He replied: “You’ll never find the former saying ‘you have to try this apple!’”

Cluver’s pioneering work in Elgin has resulted in a rich expression of terroir in its elegant reds and aromatic whites. Determined to refine the art of winemaking, the winery uses science to plant the right grapes in the most suitable terrain. The result is a range of labels that have won international awards. In 2017, a phenomenal year for Paul Cluver, its Seven Flags was considered the best Chardonnay in the world by the Decanter World Wine Awards. The label, in fact, is sold exclusively by VM in Brazil. The award was yet another great recognition for the winery, whose excellent portfolio includes several award-winning wines.

Paul Cluver’s property is part of the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The area is home to some of the most complex biodiversity on the planet, with over 1,880 plant species.

Environmental conservation is a major concern for Cluver. The De Rust estate, which includes the Paul Cluver Wines estate, contains two critically endangered vegetation types, the Elgin Shale Fynbos and the Western Ruens Shale Renosterveld. His winery is part of the Green Mountain Eco Route, which focuses specifically on developing tourism linked to biodiversity values.

Elgin

South Africa


The cool climate of the Elgin region, privileged by its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, contributes to a slower and more gradual ripening of the grapes grown in this area. This characteristic favors the production of balanced wines, with great depth and complexity of flavor. Aromatic varieties, such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, develop very well in the region.
