Pinotage the new Elbow.

It took ten years before Elbow released their first album and I think for many people the Pinotage grape from South Africa has gone through a similarly long period of rising interest.However,like Elbow,it has now found popularity and if you want to tune into Pinotage at an accessible level then the Diemersfontein Pinotage 2008, Wellington, South Africa, £7.99, Waitrose. is the way to do it. This Pinotage is famous for smelling of coffee and tasting of dark chocolate! It does and is a very well made medium bodied red which has the quality of a wine a couple of pounds more. Try it and listen to Elbow’s Great Expectations
