WHY IS IT SPECIAL?

Blue Velvet stands out because it brings Pinot Noir’s classic red-berry elegance and silky texture to a wine that remains affordable, approachable, and versatile. Van Loveren’s legacy and consistent quality from Robertson — a region better known for warm-climate reds — make this wine a dependable choice for both casual drinking and more thoughtful servings. It offers a smooth, fruit-forward profile that many find easy to enjoy now, while enough structure exists for modest cellaring. For collectors building a broad, drink-ready cellar, Blue Velvet hits the sweet spot between value and quality.

TASTING NOTES:

Nose: Aromas of red berries — think raspberry, cranberry and cherry — with floral and subtle earthy undertones. Several retailers note upfront fruit flavours of raspberries and cranberries, and gentle spicy or earthy tones.

Palate: On the palate, Blue Velvet offers juicy red-fruit flavours — dark cherry, strawberry, raspberry — coupled with soft, gentle tannins and a smooth, medium-bodied texture. The wine delivers a refreshing balance of fruit and light structure, with a touch of spice or earthiness that adds subtle complexity.

Finish: The finish is clean and elegant, lingering with red fruit and a gentle, soft-spiced character rather than overwhelming oak or heavy tannins.

Food Pairing

This Pinot Noir is a natural match for dishes that highlight its red-fruit character and soft structure. Think roast duck with berry or cherry sauce, grilled chicken, mushroom risotto, herb-crusted pork loin, or light game birds. Its red-fruited freshness and gentle tannins also pair beautifully with soft or mild cheeses — such as brie, camembert or a creamy chèvre — and with dishes featuring herbs, mushrooms or subtle spices.
