Specialities
Pinotage is in our blood and forms such a rich part of our history.
The first Pinotage plantings made their way onto Bellevue soil in the early 1950’s.
In 1953, together with Paul Sauer from Kanonkop, PK Morkel was one of the first few farmers to plant Pinotage on a commercial scale. His bold step paid off, since Bellevue’s Pinotage was awarded the Genl. Smuts Trophy in 1959, being the best young wine on the South African National Young Wine Show.
To salute the vision and bravery of PK Morkel, Bellevue takes utmost care of the 1953 Pinotage block which is still in full production. It remains the Pride and Joy of Bellevue and a very special wine is made from this block, called “The 1953”.
