2005 Stellenzicht Pinotage Golden Triangle Stellenbosch

Nose is very tight, but dense - graphite, cassis, violets. A thread of mineral/volcanic black rock runs through. Cedar emerges late. The palate is focused and packed with dense, supple tannin. Finishes with slightly bitter baking chocolate. Probably opened this a couple of years before its prime.
