| Community Tasting Notes (average 86.7 pts. and median of 89 pts. in 6 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by HangryBob on 9/1/2020 & rated 75 points: Very light, lacking overt flavours, dry with a tannin finish at the end. Maybe it needs to mature? Not worth the money otherwise. (761 views) | | | Tasted by FjordogFjell on 1/19/2019 & rated 87 points: Smakt på Stavanger Vinforum vinmesse 2019

Very nice nose. Lot of berries. Strawberries, raspberries, cherries and some christmas spices as well. Hohohoo!
Some saltiness and minerals in the finish to make it more interesting. This feels very fresh. Cranberries?
This is not something I'm accustomed to but it grows on me. 88-90. (1380 views) | | | Tasted by Omar Khayyam on 3/11/2018 & rated 90 points: This producer is really hitting some sweet spots with me! for the price, this is very good. We tried it without knowing what varietals went into this blend and our guess was that it was a blend of some rather structured gamay or trousseau with some cold climate Grenache. It has that iron like, cranberry tanginess but also some undeniable raspberry sweetness to it. Nothing for the long haul I suspect but just plain great the frist night after popping the cork. We were right about the Grenache, but the other varietals (about a third totally) is Mourvèdre and Cinsault: a cape blend. juicy and fresh but not without body. versatile with food I would say.

| Thorne & Daughters Producer websiteRed Rhone Blend Read about the different grapes used to produce red and white Rhone wines
On CellarTracker, Red Rhone Blend is the term for a wine consisting of two or more of the traditional 13 Southern Rhone grape varieties. Typically it's the Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre or Cinsault grapes, but can also contain the Muscardin, Counoise, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Picpoul, Roussanne, Terret Noir, Picardan or Vaccarese grapes.
A 'food' wine. Lacking pretension and intended for local consumption with local cuisine. Lacks the 'high' notes on a Bordeaux, more earthy and sharper so often a better partner to meat dishes with a sauce. South Africa Wines of South Africa |
