A blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, rosé de saignée, 24 months on the lees. Lovely orangey salmon colour; refreshing style, crisp and elegant, attractive meatiness, appetising, lemon and strawberry, good intensity and length.
Completely pure and natural style, sweet morello cherries, hint of chocolate, smoky stalkiness, cinnamon, transparent and elegant (12.5%), light weight but good depth, firm tannic grip, good length.
Pinotage and Pinot Noir, served slightly chlled. Bright, cheerful, fruity, an interesting blend of pinotage typicity (banana, rubber) and pinot noir elegance, cool and mineral, juicy, good length.
A blend of 50% Mantonegro and 50% French varieties (Cabernet-Sauvignon, Syrah and Merlot), aged in French and American oak. Good energy, cool and fruity minerality, black cherries, fresh, well-balanced, elegant, attractive spice and rusticity, juicy and pure, good length.
