87–89. Fatsamplet. Denne vinen er solid og mørk med bitre tanniner som gir en hard kant til de modenere bjørnebærfruktene. En tett vin som har en veldig tørr kjerne.

Denne seige, fyldige og mørke Syrah-en pirrer forsiktig med svarte fruktnoter og viltsmak. Den har fått 20 måneder på nye og brukte franske eikefat, er strukturert og kan lagres til 2020, en betydeli…

Fin, solidt teksturert vin som har noe dybde av røde fruktaromaer samt litt sødme. Tanninene er på den tørre siden, med en tydelig ristet karakter, noe som gir en vin som trenger 2–3 års lagring.

Vingartner: David Finlayson. Nesen til denne Viognier er frisk i starten, med livlige noter av kvede, melon og fynbos. Ganen tilbyr mer vekt og konsentrasjon, rund og litt flat i teksturen, med safti…

Denne vinen er dyster, med aromaer av mørk kirsebær og vilt. Ganen har modige frukt- og krydrede smaker sammen med lett sammenpressede tanniner.

Hints of apricot mingle in the red fruit aromas of this fresh rosé sparkler. The mousse is foaming but the palate has a bitter edge. Dryness and structure mean that this will fare better with earthy…

Bright and fresh, this is a totally fruity wine with a more serious edge at the end. Red cherries push through the crisp acidity that offers a zingy texture. The touch of minerality in the 40-year-ol…

This is a wine that relishes its dark color, its deep pigment. It's just as dense on the palate with concentrated black fruits and an earthy edge. There's no wood here, just ripe blackberry fruitines…

Initially fresh and herbaceous, then exotic with a tropical-fruit note, this wine boasts both a steely edge and a ripe center. It's young and could age, but at the moment it is fruitily delicious.

Rotgipfler is almost an exclusivity to Thermenregion. This bright, fruity wine is deliciously crisp with spice, pepper and pear flavors. It has a light lemon edge brought out by the refreshing acidit…

The acidity gives an almost citric tang to this closed, austere wine. There are attractive floral hints that give a softer edge. Dry, pushed by acidity and needing long-term aging.

This is a ripe, smooth blend of Alvarinho and Chardonnay. The two complement each other well with yellow fruits touched by a more citrus edge and a rich character. It is fruity, full-bodied and ready…

With a touch of wood aging, this is a bright yet toasty wine. Its fruitiness shows as citrus, pineapple and pear, with a tangy edge. There is aging potential here, to round out the wine and bring out…

Despite its delicate body, there's a fleshy unctuous feel to this forward red. Bright black-cherry and plum flavors are straightforward yet pristine on the palate, edged by hints of granite and toast…

Full, ripe wine, with flavors of peach, melon and with an intriguing nutty edge. Its texture is oily, with spice. There is a fresh, green aftertaste. Screwcap.

Structured wine with a severe edge from the dry, concentrated tannins. It's serious, stalky fruit layered with a more juicy element and tight acidity. The wine does need aging to soften its austere c…
