Amazingly complex with a ripe, mouth-filling, creamy texture. Rich apricot, pear, nectarine, orange peel, ginger, fig and persimmon, balanced beautifully with a bright acidity with a hint of nuttiness on the lasting finish. A stunning wine and a great case for Chenin Blanc being the signature white varietal of South Africa.
Sangiovese’s freshness tempers the richness of the Shiraz. Its medium body, along with a nose of chocolate chip cookie dough, plums, spices and dark cherries work wonderfully together. There is very good length, as well as a smooth texture.
Medium-deep browning garnet. Medium-intensity nose of sour cherries with vanilla oak. Tastes of ripe red berries, especially strawberries, with tannins and acidity still in surprisingly good balance with the fruit, but that will not last long. Drink yesterday.
This wine has a rich nose of apples, vanilla toast, minerals, elegant barrel spices and underlying lemon and citrus. It is pure sophistication on the palate, a proper and graceful Chardonnay with a sense of place that shows the fine minerality of the vineyard and lovely toasted oak that works well with the baked apple, pear and spice flavours that are well-balanced to the very end.
Elegant and understated yet fresh and bright with a nice approachability. Cherry, strawberry and cranberry flavours with notes of fresh herbs, tea, earth and a hint of oak with a pleasant, soft bit of acidity on the finish. A nice match with braised rabbit.
Dark cherry colour. Red fruits, cinnamon and a hint of celery leaf provide a light, appropriate vegetal note. Fresh attack, smooth tannins and only a touch of oak to complement. Classic.
A fabulously elegant and balanced wine combining florality, bright fruit, spice, freshness and minerality with great integration, complexity, concentration, refined tannins and a long, fresh finish. Hits all the right notes. This small family-owned producer is definitely one to seek out and is fast becoming a benchmark for the area.
