Golden Kaan’s 2006 Pinotage has once again been awarded “Best Buy” in the US Magazine “Wine Enthusiast”. Additionally, the wine has been included in the “Top Ten Wine for Under $10” list. The new award will be published in the coming June issue.

This is the most recent in a succession of accolades for the Golden Kaan brand, now ranked the #4 South African Brand in the US Market. Golden Kaan has previously received Wine Enthusiast Best Buys for its 2006 Shiraz, 2007 Sauvignon Blanc and 2006 Chardonnay.

The jury considered Golden Kaan Pinotage a savory and accessible version of Pinotage with cherry, raspberry and plum aromas that lead into spicy, savory flavors of cherry and smoke.

“Golden Kaan is rising to the top of the South African import wine charts and is gaining ground in the US even in a tough economic market,” says Marian Kopp, President of Golden Kaan. “These are quality wines at an affordable price and that is exactly what consumers are looking for today.
