Much like the mighty Springboks, it was proudly home-grown in sunny South Africa, where a clever old botanist spliced the pretty-but-diva-like Pinot Noir with the more rugged Hermitage to give it some grit. The result was an elegant beast of grape that runs roughshod over other cultivars. It’s downright EPIC. Naturally, Six Dogs wanted to use it in a gin. But, as previously mentioned, they weren’t allowed to. This very fact brought out the rebel without a cause in their distiller, who then obviously had to. So he got crafty. Since he could not crush the Pinotage berries in the gin, or infuse it during the distillation process, it was decided to add hand-selected grapes to the gin once distillation was done so it could slowly, over a matter of months, impart its awesomeness into our marvellous gin.
