From the maiden release in 2001, this benchmark wine has redefined South Africa’s own red grape variety, Pinotage, with its classic, refined styling and unique complex character. This is a wine unlike anything else, intense, rich and savoury with a beautiful underlying minerality.
Named after Anthony Hamilton Russell’s great, great grandfather Lord Ashbourne, Ashbourne was founded on the Eastern border of Hamilton Russell Vineyards in 1996 to create a single, extraordinary Pinotage in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley appellation. To many, their Pinotage is considered the best in the world. It is a particularly classic, cool climate Old World expression of the variety, which never fails to confuse tasters on country of origin and grape variety. In effect, it is an entirely new, but truly South African, expression of the Pinotage grape.
