International Pinotage Day October 11, 2025

Second Saturday in October International Pinotage Day October 11, 2025

The Pinotage Association states that “there is so much to talk about when the topic of Pinotage comes up. From historic tales of creation – merging Pinot Noir and Hermitage (Cinsaut) grapes by Prof Perold – to today’s legends crafting the latest Pinotage or Pinotage blends. The Pinotage tale is one worth well telling and should always end where it is enjoyed with friends, food or maybe even somewhere alone with a bottle of Pinotage as your company.”
