Orpheus & The Raven No 7 Pinotage 2022

The journey began when the owners turned 42, experiencing a “middle-age” awakening—a reminder that life never offers all the answers. This resonates with anyone navigating the highs and lows of midlife. On one hand, there’s the wisdom of years; on the other, the growing awareness of mortality. This duality leads to the humbling realization that life’s deepest mysteries may remain forever unknown, urging us to savor the journey itself.

This tale of Pinotage’s rise mirrors Orpheus & the Raven’s spirit of exploration, innovation, and defiance. Lucky No7 was our daring gamble. Symbolizing the original seven vineyards, this was our all-or-nothing wager to take a bold stand against conformity. The label brings this to life: Orpheus, gripping a Pinotage vine in one hand and an hourglass in the other, charges through swirling forces. Beside him, a skeletal figure nods to the past, while the Raven kneels, envisioning a bright future, urging the rebels never to surrender.
