Vinanmeldelser

Vinmaker: Louis Nel. Denne Cab-Shiraz-blandingen er noe lukket for øyeblikket, med dempede mørke fruktaromaer som antyder bjørnebær, bjørnebær og plomme. Fyllig munnfølelse, gripende tanniner skaper…

Vinemaker: Adi Badenhorst. Det er en tydelig jordnær, vill duft i denne vinen, som kommer frem i aromaer av skogsbær, spekemat, trebark og fuktige blader. Den støttes av en kjerne av modne ville jord…

Vingård: Boela Gerber. En Bordeaux-stil blanding av 70 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 15 % Petit Verdot og 15 % Cabernet Franc, denne er tett og konsentrert gjennom hele. Rike noter av moden bjørnebær, solbær…

Vinmaker: Gary Jordan. En blanding av 60 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 30 % Merlot og 10 % Cabernet Franc, denne starter med lett likørlignende aromaer av crème de cassis, svart lakris, mynteolje og sigarbok…

Frisk, sprø eple- og pærefrukt vises først. Dette følges av både mer generøs eplejuice og syrligere sitrusnoter. Midt i munnen viser konsentrasjon og en mild men bestemt kraft. Tekstur og syre gir st…

Dry and delicate with mixed fresh herbs, melon, green berry, spice and rock—lots of rock. It shows surprising length and develops nicely in the throat, seeming to add flesh as you taste. A really nic…

Sweet oak notes are followed by cherry, chocolate and vanilla. This is a rich Cabernet Sauvignon with a modern and very pleasurable approach that puts emphasis on power, softness and intensity. Vibra…

Classic botrytis sweet and dry flavors bring out the rich honey and lemon juice. The wine also has freshness, a tight edge of orange and sweet chutney spice. A great example of sweet Gaillac.

A full-bodied wave of savory spice and rich fruit. Aromas of tobacco, mint, cassis and mocha lead, followed by smooth, luscious flavors of plum, smoke, and tobacco. Ageable but delicious now, the win…

A beautiful Viognier that showcases the variety's rich, exotic side. Offers a mouthburst of ripe grilled peaches, pineapples, green apples, honeysuckle and vanilla wrapped into a creamy, buttery text…

Initially it seems very dry, but there is freshness as well. The wine has a sweet, jelly core, with soft tannins, well balanced. Raisins and black figs dominate, with the aftertaste bringing a firmin…

Named as commemoration of the Knights Templar whose Portuguese headquarters were in nearby Tomar, this is a seriously rich, opulent wine, full of red berry fruits and dark spices. Flavors of damson,…

This edition of Le Sughere di Frassinello shows impressive softness and richness, with round tones of red cherry, chocolate, spice, leather and tobacco. It's soft, luscious and very smooth on the fin…

Orange peel aromas emerge on this delectable fortified Moscatel. Aging in barrel for at least three years has given it roundness and some old toast character that adds to the dried raisin and apricot…

A delicious Sauvignon Blanc, barrel fermented in some new oak. It's elaborate in kiwi, orange, pear and honeydew melon flavors, yet crisp acidity and a firm minerality provide balance. Drinks better…

This interesting Cabernet was grown in various parts of the valley, but you can detect a cool-climate influence in the acidity and especially the tannins, which are firm and astringent. Yet the wine,…

It's the 100% Merlot that gives the alcohol and superripe fruit to this wine, redeemed by the acidity. Licorice and dark chocolate flavors go with the sweetest plums and spice. Age for 3–4 years.

Made from grapes sourced from the Gebling Vineyard, this has broad, ripe yellow fruit and a touch of spice. With its rich mouthfeel, it is a serious wine, both complex and intense. Age for at least a…

Soft, ripe and perfumed, this has currant and pear flavors. With its intense lemon tang and tense texture, it will certainly age. Screwcap.

Unbelievable that there's no oak on this Chardonnay. It's so rich and creamy in vanilla, tangerine, peach and apricot flavors, you won't miss that hit of buttered toast. The acidity is marvelous.

This Chardonnay has all the bells and whistles the winemaker can bestow on it. It's soft and creamy, with flavors of sweetly-sour pineapple and lemon-drop candy, buttered toast and savory cinnamon sp…
