The wine cellar

stacked with all these lovely barrels full of wine.

Kanonkop has the world's most expensive Pinotage at US$ 400 (GBP 325)

It is South Africa's signature variety and was cultivated here in 1925. It is a cross between Pinot noir and Cinsaut, which was known in SA as Hermitage, hence the name.

A great capture of the light on the wood of the barrels! (Wow! That would be quite the wine!) Fav

Lovely shot Dianna. Until a year or two ago we had a SA winemaker on the Granite Belt. He had brought some cuttings with him and introduced our area to Pinotage. Errol absolutely loves it. :)

Great view inside the cellar and those nice barrels

They look precarious.

[Diana]

@robz How interesting Rob, I believe there are a few vineyards in Oz that make Pinotage these days. I must admit that I am not a red wine drinker but m glad that Errol enjoys it ;-)

[Diana]

@shutterbug49 I probably have at some stage as Harry enjoys it. I actually don't drink red wine at all Debbie, my favourite is a Chenin ;-)

[Kerry McCarthy]

Beautiful light and warm tones.

[Mark]

Great shot. Having tried many times, I know how hard it is to get good shots in a winery since the lighting is often very low. Well done!

[PhotoCrazy]

Wonderful pic!

[John Falconer]

$400!!! I Hope that’s per barrel not bottle!!
Great shot.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Wow- that's one pricey bottle of wine! The lighting in the cellar is as warm and inviting as the sound of that wine. Nice shot.

[Chris Cook]

I love the lighting in this shot.
