Ah – had that ’86 Pinot in April 2007 on a blind tasting – a good memory. Some of that Pinot were blended into their Pinotages in those days. On that same tasting we had a truly sublime 1992 Kanonkop Pinotage. All Pinotage detractors would swallow their prejudices if they could taste that against their favourites in a blind tasting (presuming it’s also a good bottle)!
