Product information "Warwick Professor Black Pitch Black 2021"
The Warwick Professor Black Pitch Black flows into the glass in a powerful purple-red colour and exudes a wonderful aroma of cassis, dark chocolate, lavender and ripe strawberries. On the palate, the blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (42%), Cinsault (20%), Merlot (15%), Cabernet Franc (10%), Petit Verdot (7%) and Malbec (6%) is rich and well-structured with silky soft tannins. Fruity notes of blackcurrant and plum are surrounded by spicy tones and well-integrated oak nuances for a long-lasting and unforgettable flavour experience. Enjoy the Warwick Professor Black Pitch Black, which has matured for twelve months in small French oak barrels, with dark meat - beef is particularly recommended - or savoury dishes. But this complex red wine is also always a treat on its own.

Warwick Estate with premium wine from Stellenbosch
Situated on the northern border of the Stellenbosch wine region, along the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain, Warwick Wine Estate has a long track record of producing some of South Africa’s finest and most acclaimed wines. Red varieties are at the centre of Warwick’s focus, embodied in iconic wines like Trilogy, The Blue Lady Cabernet Sauvignon and single varietal Cabernet Franc and the Cape Blend Three Cape Ladies. The estate also produces several highly-rated white wines such as The White Lady Chardonnay and Professor Black. The “First Lady” range immortalises the legacy of Norma Ratcliffe - one of the Cape’s first female winemakers - who guided Warwick to acclaim since producing the estate’s first wine in 1984.
Warwick Estate - a winery with tradition
The history of the winery dates back to 1771. Warwick owes its rise to an internationally renowned winery in particular to the Ratcliffe family. Norma Ratcliffe was one of the first women to work as a winemaker. She studied wine making and began to create wines from the excellent Cabernet Sauvignon vines. There followed not only great success for the Warwick wines. Norma Ratcliffe was also rewarded for her efforts and became the first woman to join the Cape Winemaker Guild. Meanwhile, the winery Warwick belongs to Charles Marston and Kishore Boperdikar. They want to further promote the international success of Warwick wines and expand wine production by purchasing neighbouring vineyards.
