HUDSON, Fla. - Aug. 1, 2018 - PRLog -- Follow my journey into the world of wine. I'm a non-technical wine writer that just loves wines from around the world. My favorites are Craft, Natural and more affordable wines. finewinesgazette.com.
Here is part of my latest review.

Today is another wine from Jeremy Borg and Painted Wolf Wines (http://www.paintedwolfwines.com/) Pack, Paarl, South Africa,  Painted Wolf The Den Pinotage 2015. This wine helps support the preservation of the African Wild Dog or Painted Wolf. There are only 6500 left in the world. Another species in danger. Every bottle sold goes to support this cause.

The wine
This wine is 100% Pinotage picked from vineyards in Swartland and Paarl. This is in the Wine of Origin Coastal region.  Most of the grapes were destalked and fermented in tanks with French and American oak staves. Malolactic fermentation was completed on staves which we removed from the wine. Approximately 15% of the wine was fermented in small open fermenters and hand-punched before being pressed off prior to full dryness into small older French and American oak barrels.

Painted Wolf The Den Pinotage 2015
Painted Wolf had its beginnings in 2006 and their first vintage in 2007. Along with Jeremy and his wife Emma, the formation of the company began with the first pack members Billy Hughes, Paul Kempton Jones, Mark Gray & Quinta do Portal. The first wines were a Pinotage and a Cape Blend. Since then they have won many awards for their wines. Read more @ finewinesgazette.com
