Print product information sheet

The Raka Pinotage is a distinctive red wine from South Africa that reveals the full potential of this unique grape variety. At the Raka winery, which is located at the foot of the Kleinrivier in the Walker Bay region, a Pinotage is vinified with great care and experience that impressively combines power, elegance and South African terroir.

In the glass, the Raka Pinotage is a deep ruby red with purple reflections. An intense aroma of dark berries and ripe fruit unfolds on the nose. There are also hints of red cherries and vanilla with an oak aroma that rounds off the wine.

The grapes for the Raka Pinotage are selectively harvested by hand and fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. The wine then matures for several months in French barriques - an ageing process that gives it structure, depth and elegant roasted aromas without masking the fruit. This combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern cellar technology makes the Raka Pinotage an expressive representative of its kind.

The Raka Pinotage is an ideal accompaniment to hearty meat dishes such as grilled lamb, game ragout, beef steaks or spicy BBQ ribs. It is also a delightful partner to mature cheeses and dark chocolate.

Raka Happiness Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc Brut
Raka Happiness Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc Brut
The Raka Happiness Sparkling impresses with its light straw yellow color and lively, fresh aroma. This sparkling wine is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc and comes from the prestigious Klein River Valley wine-growing region in South Africa.On the nose, the wine reveals fresh citrus notes of grapefruit and kumquat, complemented by aromas of gooseberry and a hint of passion fruit. On the palate, it is tangy and lively with fruity lime notes and a crisp green apple finish.The grapes were harvested by hand and carefully sorted before processing. They were then placed directly into the press, where the must was left in contact with the skin for eight hours to intensify the aromas. After pressing, the juice was fermented with pure yeasts at around 16°C to ensure optimal fermentation. The wine matured after fermentation with increased yeast contact, giving it additional complexity. After natural clarification by gravity, the wine was filtered and carbonated at a pressure of 5.8 bar (at 20°C), bottled and labeled.The fresh and lively Raka Happiness Sparkling goes perfectly with light starters, seafood, sushi or as an aperitif. Enjoy it well chilled at a recommended drinking temperature of 6-8°C to bring out its fresh fruitiness.

Raka Sangiovese
Raka Sangiovese
The single-varietal Raka Sangiovese from the Klein River Valley in South Africa combines the classic elegance of the grape variety with the powerful expressiveness of the terroir.The wine is a deep raspberry red in the glass. The bouquet is reminiscent of sweet and sour cherries, roasted tomatoes and fine herbal notes such as oregano. On the palate, the wine is wonderfully balanced with spicy, earthy undertones, which are carried by a lively, natural acidity and end in a long, aromatic finish.The hand-picked grapes were carefully selected in the vineyard and sorted a second time in the cellar. After inoculation with the pure yeast, the must was pumped over the skins several times a day during the five-day fermentation to extract color, tannin and aromas. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine was separated from the yeast, rested briefly and then underwent malolactic fermentation. The wine was matured in a combination of French and Hungarian barriques.An ideal accompaniment to pasta with tomato sugo, roasted eggplant, antipasti or game birds with Mediterranean herbs. Also a delight with pizza with prosciutto or truffle oil. The recommended drinking temperature is 16-18 °C to allow the fine spice and fruit to develop to their full potential.

Spieler der für die Springboks - Südafrikas Rugby-Nationalmannschaft – als Spieler ausgewählt wurde. Er schaffte Historisches indem ihm der erste „Versuch“ (im englischen Try) gegen die damals schon übermächtige Mannschaft der All Blacks (neuseeländische Rugby-Nationalteam) gelang. Gegen die sogenannten „Unbesiegbaren“ war das natürlich etwas ganz besonders. Mit der 221-Reihe zollen das Weingut Alvi´s Drift dem Patriarchen Oupa Alvi und den siegreichen südafrikanischem Rugbyteam Springbok Tribut.
