Aired for 1/2 hour.. Dark crimson/purple in color with medium legs. Very pleasant aroma; some strawberry and a bit of rhubarb. Flavors of Black Cherry, Strawberry and a hint of cinnamon . Medium finish that ended a bit muted.

This is really sinking well now. Decanted for an hour The Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah all come through. Light but with good acid and structure.

Oh my, yet another strike from Duncan Savage with this delicious red (Rhônish) blend of 63% Grenache, 26% Cinsault & 11% Syrah, each variety giving true character to the wine. Ruby, shiny & translucent in the glass. Nose - heavily Grenache-influenced, brimes with forest strawberries, raspberries, sweet cherries, cranberries, tad of earth and backbone meatiness, dried herbs from Provence & orange zest. Palate - ethereal yet with precision & depth, flavours as per nose, racy acidity, sweet & sour-touched finish!

Normally not a Grenache fan, but this is nice, even if simple.
Translucent like a Pinot
Fruitforward on the palate. Straightforward, simple raspberries. No second layer. A good party wine, less suited for dinners.

Dark fruit with acid, rubber and earth. Pretty simple but good clean fruit. Dense. Black coffee. An easy drinking wine that isn't sweet or too modern. Good for an inexpensive wine.

Spectacular summertime wine. The grenache and cinsaut dominate the syrah which is really only there in spirit (and on the lable). Apparently the grenache is from the same Vineyard as Sadie's Soldaat and it shows. Plenty of layers and depth from the grenache while the cinsaut adds that unfined texture to the fruitiness. Yum.

Tending towards garnet with a fairly pronounced clear rim. Big nose dominated by the Syrah with blood and meat along with some floral notes from the Cinsault. Big palate tending towards secondary characteristics, very rich with a lightness of touch. Elegant wine with a long finish and a refreshing palate.

Dark cherries and lots of dark fruits, really high complexity, great lenght, well made wine for sure. Great tannins that are present but not exaggerated. I do like this!
Not sure if this is made for ageing. The tannins are there now and I don't think that the aromas or the flavours will get any better than this.
Drink now or within four yeara.

Would be better in my book with higher acidity, but definitely still worth every cent.

Lovely wine. Decanted for two hours. All three grape veriaties (Cinsault, Mauvedra and Syrah). come through and are intergrated. Light Cherries, light tannins. So moorish.

Can go with more time but with air it is drinking well.

Okay Sangoivese, a bit thin and tart. Popped and poured initially, but did not change much with time in the glass. Paired with baked ziti.

Really complex wine. Would have went for a Syrah ar first, peppery and meaty. Mid palate did develop to a profile more similar to grenache.
Feels like a northern Rhone on the nose and Beaujolais in mouth.

Balanced acidity, fine and smooth tannins, the amounts of layers amaze me all the time. Lacks deep, and potential for ageing for an even higher grade.

Drink within four years

Nice medium body SA wine. Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault. Light colour. Green Grenache and Cinsault on the nose with grass, some developing dried meat savory textures, red fruits. Palate gives good acidity and softer tannins along with good spicy notes from the Syrah. Rather nice although will survive for several more years.
