COVER STORY
MÔRESON
Franschhoek's Môreson Pinotage was awarded 4½ Stars in this month's panel tasting. With a full, well-structured palate of concentrated fruit and fresh acidity, it's a perfect pairing with charcuterie made by chef Neil Jewell of Môreson's on-site restaurant Bread & Wine. For a in-depth discussion with Môreson winemaker Clayton Reabow, and more on Neil's charcuterie, turn to page 38.
