"A classic Cabernet with cedar spice and pencil shaving aromatics. Dense dark ruby red/black colour with ripe plums and integrated oak on the nose. Full flavoured palate and firm structure. Supple, yet fresh. Great potential for ageing and further development for the next 6-8 years."
"Complex and attractive bouquet of oriental spices with pronounced violet and white pepper flavours. It has lovely perfumed red fruit aromatics. A well-balanced wine with spicy overtones and a lingering finish. Very classic style with unmistakable Rhone flavours. Good to drink now, but will develop and mature over the next 10 years."
"A young Viognier vineyard on Sugarbird Manor in Stellenbosch. Dried flowers, potpourri, dried ginger root, hibiscus, orange peel and strawberry juice. Tastes pretty close to dry with a fragrant peppermint finish. Includes the taste of rooibos tea botanicals as well as the ping and zip of the grapefruit rinds. Beautifully juicy, red shiny maraschino-cherry and nectarine fruit in the middle." 25 g/L Residiual sugar.
